This feature enables automatic detection of the page size of a
scanned document. The space around the edges of documents can
be omitted during scanning, even for non-standard size documents.
Deskew
Even if a document is slanted when fed into the scanner, the scanned
image can be straightened.
Text Enhanced Mode
Advanced Text Enhancement II is provided to improve the readability
when scanning documents in which the background is uniform and
both the text and background are light.
*This feature may not work effectively for some documents
Picture Mode
The [Apply corrections suitable for photographs] features
compensates for underexposed and overexposed images for photo-

confirm the scanned image and adjust the brightness and contrast,
and then scan the remaining pages of the document.
Scan First
Pressing the Start button on the scanner automatically starts
CaptureOnTouch Lite or CaptureOnTouch, which allows simple
scanning by following the instructions on screen.
Auto Detection of Document in Feeder

Scanning the following types of documents can cause a paper jam or
malfunction. To scan such a document, make a photocopy of the
document and then scan the photocopy.
Postcard
Business Card
Card
If you place cards to be fed horizontally, they may not be ejected
properly, and cards that get jammed may be damaged when you
remove them. Take care of the orientation when placing cards.
Embossed cards may not be able to be scanned correctly, depending
on the type of embossment.
A document must meet the following criteria to be scannable:
● When scanning multiple documents of different sizes, place
the documents so that they cover the entire span of the feed
rollers.
● Scanning documents before the ink is dry can cause problems
with the scanner. Always make sure that the ink on a document
is dry before scanning it.
● Scanning documents that are written in pencil or similar
material may make the rollers and scanning glass dirty, which
can lead to smudges on the scanned image and transfer the
dirt to subsequent documents. Always clean the internal parts
of the scanner after scanning such documents.
● When scanning a two-sided document that is printed on thin
paper, the image on the opposite side of each page may show
through. In this case, adjust the scanning intensity in the
application software before scanning the document.
● It is recommended that thin documents are fed one sheet at a
time.

Useful tips ........................................................................................... 96
Clearing a Paper Jam
When paper jams occur during scanning, use the following
procedure to clear them.
Be careful when removing jammed paper. It is possible to cut your
hand on the edge of a sheet of paper.
1 Remove any documents remaining in the feed tray.
2 Open the feeder cover.
93
3 Remove the jammed document from the feed side or eject side. 4 Close the feeder cover.
After you remove the jammed paper, check to see if the last page was
scanned correctly, and then continue scanning.
Carefully pull out the document without using excessive force. If the
jammed paper tears, make sure that you remove any remaining pieces.
Make sure the document does not get caught in the card guides as well.
When a paper jam or other problem occurs while [Rapid recovery
system] is enabled in the scanner driver, the image of the last
document that was scanned properly is saved before scanning is
stopped. Therefore, you can quickly resume scanning after
resolving the cause of the interruption. As the image of the
document that was being fed at the time of the interruption may not
be saved in such cases, be sure to verify the last scanned image
before resuming the operation.
94
Common Problems and Solutions
This section provides recommended solutions to common problems.
If you have a problem that is not solved by the following, contact your local
authorized Canon dealer.
Q1 The scanner does not turn ON.
A1 1 The scanner remains OFF while the feed tray is closed.
When you open the feed tray, the scanner turns ON
automatically.
2 If the scanner is connected to the computer via a USB hub,
try removing the hub and connecting directly to the
computer.
Q2 The scanner is not recognized.
A2 1 Confirm that the scanner is properly connected to the
computer with a USB cable.
2 Confirm that the scanner is turned on. See the previous "Q1"
"The scanner does not turn ON.". if the scanner does not
turn on.
3 The computer's USB interface may not support the scanner.

interfaces.
4 Confirm that the supplied USB cable is used to connect the
scanner to the computer. The scanner cannot be guaranteed
to work with all available USB cables.
5 If the scanner is connected to the computer via a USB hub,
try removing the hub and connecting directly to the
computer.
6 When the Auto Start switch on the scanner is set to ON, you
can only scan with the built-in application, CaptureOnTouch
Lite. In this case, scanning from applications on the
computer is disabled.
7 When the scanner is operated with Windows and if "?", "!", or
"x" icons appear for the scanner in Device Manager, delete
the scanner in Device Manager and reinstall the scanner
driver.
Q3 Documents feed askew (scanned images are slanted).
A3 1 Reduce the number of pages that you load into the scanner
at one time, and then scan again.
2 Align the document guides to fit the documents as closely as
possible, and load the documents so that they feed straightly.
3 Enable [Automatically straightens skewed] (or [Deskew]) in
the scanner driver settings.
4 If many pages have been scanned since the last roller
cleaning, clean the rollers and separation pad. When
cleaning the scanner refer to "Cleaning the Scanning Glass
and the Rollers" on p.88. When replacing, refer to "When to
replace the separation pad" on p.89.
5 Confirm that the separation pad is attached securely.
6 Perfectly straight scanning may not be possible for the
document due to the structural design of the scanner.
Q4 CaptureOnTouch Lite does not start.
A4 1 If the Auto Start switch on the scanner is set to OFF, the built-
in application, CaptureOnTouch Lite, does not start. Close
the feed tray to turn OFF the scanner, and set the Auto Start
switch to ON.
2 If access to USB devices is blocked by security software, you
may not be able to use CaptureOnTouch Lite.
Q5 The auto play screen appears when the scanner is
connected, but you cannot scan with CaptureOnTouch.
A5 When the Auto Start switch on the scanner is set to ON, you can
only scan with the built-in application, CaptureOnTouch Lite.
Close the feed tray to turn OFF the scanner, and set the Auto
Start switch to OFF.
Q6 Documents are not scanned according to the settings
configured in the scanner driver.
A6 When you scan using [Select document] panel registered with
CaptureOnTouch, the CaptureOnTouch settings have priority
over the scanner driver settings. Edit settings in the [Select
document] panel, or create a new [Select document] panel using
the desired scanning conditions.
95
Q7 If white lines or streaks appear in scanned images.
A7 Clean both sides of the scanner glass, and the rollers. If a sticky
substance such as glue or correction fluid is found, carefully wipe
with just enough pressure to clean the area where the lines
appear. For cleaning the scanner, refer to "Chapter 10 Regular
Maintenance". If the problem cannot be solved by cleaning, the
internal glass may be scratched. Contact your local authorized
Canon dealer.
Q8 Pages are missing.
A8 Then the scanner driver's [Scanning Side] setting is [Skip blank
page], documents with very little black may be unintentionally
skipped. Decrease the [Set the likelihood of skipping blank page]
value "When you want to delete the images of the blank pages in
two-sided documents" on p.75, or select another scan mode
setting such as [Simplex] or [Duplex]. If pages are skipped due to
the document double feeding, see "Q9" "Documents jam (or
double-feed).".
Q9 Documents jam (or double-feed).
A9 1 If the feed roller and the separation pad have been installed
correctly, clean them if necessary. For cleaning and
replacement, refer to "Chapter 11 Detaching and attaching
the separation pad".
2 Proper scanning may not be possible when document pages
stick together due to static electricity. Fan the documents
before you load them.
Q10 Multiple pages of scanned images cannot be saved to a
single file.
A10 Depending on the file format, multiple scanned image pages
cannot be saved as a single file with CaptureOnTouch Lite and
CaptureOnTouch.
• BMP, PNG, JPEG: Always save one page per file.
• PPTX: Always saved multiple pages per file.
• TIFF, PDF: You can save multiple pages to a single file by
clicking and selecting in the displayed dialog box.
For the setting method, see "About file formats".
Q11 All of the placed documents have been scanned, but the
scanned image does not appear on the application.
A11 When [Panel-Feeding] or [Automatic Feeding] is selected as the
document feeding method on the scanner driver's setting screen,
scanning will continue even after all documents have been
scanned because the scanner is waiting for additional
documents. To finish the operation and send the scanned images
to the application, press the [STOP] button (Windows) / [Finish]
button (OS X) on the operating panel.
Q12 Memory becomes insufficient and scanning stops.
A12 If you configure scanning conditions that use a large amount of
the computer's memory, scanning may stop because of
insufficient memory. Although this depends on the computer's
memory size, the possibility of insufficient memory increases if
any of the following scanning conditions overlap.
• [Color Mode] is set to [24-bit Color]
• A large page size (e.g. Legal) is specified as the [Page Size].
Alternatively, the page size is set to [Scanner's Maximum].
• A high resolution (600dpi etc.) is specified for [Dots per inch].
If an error message appears due to insufficient memory while
scanning is in progress, stop scanning, change the scanning
conditions (e.g. reduce the resolution or page size) and then try
scanning again. In addition, the amount of memory used can be
contained by turning off [Moire Reduction] and [Prevent Bleed
Through/Remove Background] if they are set to on.
Q13 The scanner makes unusual noise while feeding
documents.
A13 The paper quality of some documents can result in unusual
noises, but this does not indicate a malfunction.
96
Software Troubleshooting
This section describes troubleshooting problems and solutions for
operating the supplied software (CaptureOnTouch).
If scanning is too slow
1 Close other running programs, if any.
2 Scanning can be slowed down by memory shortage caused by
memory-resident applications such as anti-virus programs. Close
such memory-resident programs if necessary to free up memory
space.
3 When insufficient hard disk space is available, the scanner may be
unable to create the necessary temporary files for scanned data.
Delete unneeded data on the hard disk to free up more space.
4 Scanning is slow if the computer's USB port is not Hi-Speed USB 2.0
compliant.
5 If using a common USB cable that is not Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compliant,
replace the cable with the supplied compliant cable.
6 When the scanner is connected to the computer via a USB hub that is
not Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compliant, remove the hub and connect the
scanner directly to the computer.
If scanned image files cannot be opened in an application
1
Scanned images saved as multi-page TIFF files can be opened only
by programs that support this file format.
2 Images saved as compressed TIFF files (single- as well as multi-
page) can only be opened by programs that support the compressed
format. This can occur with programs that are not compatible with
CaptureOnTouch. In this case, select "None" as the image file
compression format before scanning.
