Your 2-sided documents can be faxed, copied, or scanned up to Ledger size using the ADF.
- Fan the pages well.
- Adjust the paper guides (1) to fit the document size.
- Place your document face up in the ADF, as shown in the illustration, until you feel the document touch the feed stoppers and the machine beeps.
