Paper jamming, skewing, misfeeds, or multiple-page feeds
● If the pages look skewed as they feed into the scanner paper path, check the
resulting scanned images in the software to ensure that they are not skewed.
● The pages might not be placed correctly. Straighten the pages and adjust the paper
guides to center the stack.
● The paper guides must be touching the sides of the paper stack to work properly.
Ensure that the paper stack is straight and the guides are against the paper stack.
