HP Scanjet 7650 Document Flatbed Scanner - Scan From the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)

Introduction

This document explains how to perform the following functions with the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF):
  • Choose acceptable media for the ADF.
  • Scan documents from the ADF.
  • Scan two-sided documents from the ADF.
note:
The HP Scanjet 7650 model scanner does not support media smaller than A4 or Letter size in the ADF.

Choose acceptable media for the ADF

The ADF works best when the originals meet the following specifications. If the originals do not meet these criteria, scan from the scanner glass.
  • For one-sided scanning, use A4, letter, or legal-size paper: 210 x 355.6 mm (8.5 x 14 inches).
  • For two-sided scanning, use A4 or letter-size media. The ADF cannot scan both sides of a document smaller than 127 x 127 mm (5 x 5 inches) or larger than 210 x 304.8 mm (8.5 x 12 inches).
    note:
    To scan both sides of a legal-size document, 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches), scan one side from the ADF, turn the document over, and then scan the other side from the ADF.
  • Custom-size media ranging from 88.9 x 127 mm (3.5 x 5 inches) to 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches) can be scanned with the one-sided option.
  • Media weights from 60 to 90 grams per square meter (g/m2) (16 to 24 pounds).
  • Media that does not contain perforations or punch holes.
  • Media that does not contain wet glue, correction fluid, or ink.
note:
Avoid putting multipart forms, transparencies, magazine pages, gumbacked pages, and lightweight paper in the ADF.
Before placing an original in the ADF, check for and remove any curls, wrinkles, staples, paperclips, or any other attached material.
