Scanning Multi-layered Documents such as Envelopes

Booklets and multi-layered documents such as envelopes, documents folded in half, or transfer paper can be scanned with the ScanSnap.
ATTENTION

Scanning multi-layered documents is only available for Return Scan, in which a document is inserted into the manual feeder and scanned.

For details about documents that can be loaded, refer to here in the ScanSnap Help.

  1. Hold the right side of the ADF paper chute (cover) of the ScanSnap then open it or press the [Scan] button to turn the power on.

    Open the ADF paper chute (cover) fully so that the [Scan] button lights up in blue.

    When the ADF paper chute (cover) is opened, the extension will rise automatically.

  2. Check that the [Scan] button on the ScanSnap is lit in purple.
  3. Insert the document into the manual feeder of the ScanSnap.

    Face the front side of a document upwards and insert the top end of the document straight into the middle of the manual feeder.

    Make sure that the document is pulled in and set in the ScanSnap.


    Inserting the Document
    ATTENTION

    The document comes out from the back of the ScanSnap during the scan.

    Leave space (about the length of the document) at the back of the ScanSnap.

    HINT

    You can scan a document with the ADF paper chute (cover) closed.

  4. Press the [Scan] button on the ScanSnap and scan the document.

    The [Scan] button flashes in blue while the scanned image is being sent to the ScanSnap Cloud service.

    When the scanned image has been sent, the [Scan] button lights up in purple again.

    A new scan history is added to the scan history list of the ScanSnap Cloud application by updating the list. For details about the scan history list, refer to Main Screen.

    HINT

    When a scanned image is sent to the ScanSnap Cloud service or saved in a cloud storage service, a push notification is sent to your mobile device.

  5. On a cloud storage service that supports the scanned document type, check the scanned image to make sure the document was scanned properly.

    Scanned images can be checked on the Detail View Screen of the ScanSnap Cloud application.

    HINT

    If the scanned image is not saved in a specified cloud storage service, the document type for the scanned document may have been detected incorrectly. In such a case, the scanned image can be transferred to another cloud storage service. For details, refer to Transferring a Scanned Image to Another Cloud Storage Service.

    If it is difficult to do so, disable the detection of the document type and specify one cloud storage service. Scanned images will always be saved in the specified cloud storage service, regardless of the document type. For details, refer to [Select cloud storage services] Screen.
