HP ScanJet 4p Scanners - How to Use the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)
Tips for Using Step 1 - Load the Paper Step 2 - Scan the Document To Scan a Single Page Tips for Using

• Remove any paper from the copyboard glass before using the ADF.
• Straighten any curls or wrinkles from documents before putting them on the document tray. If this is not possible, do not scan these documents using the ADF. Instead, use the copyboard glass or make a photocopy of the documents and scan the photocopies.
• Remove staples, paper clips, and any other materials from documents.
• Avoid documents with tears, perforations, or punch holes.
• Do not use the ADF to scan sheets of uncommon paper or other media, such as the following: - transparencies - gummed-backed paper - magazine pages - lightweight ("onionskin") carbons
• For paper smaller than 5 inches (127 mm) by 7 inches (178 mm) or larger than 14 inches (356 mm) by 8.5 inches (216 mm), use the scanner glass instead of the ADF. Paper smaller than the minimum size may cause a paper jam.
• For paper lighter than 16 lb bond (60 g/m sq) or heavier than 32 lb bond (120 g/m sq), use the scanner glass instead of the ADF.
• Before scanning, always push the front of the ADF downward to the scanner to ensure that the magnetic latches are engaged.

Step 1 - Load the Paper Besides the instructions below, quick reference decals on the input tray and access hatch show the order of steps for paper loading.

1. Turn on the scanner.
2. Ensure the scanner's scanner glass is free of paper.
3. Turn the green paper load lever into an upright and open position. Refer to decal number 1 located on the ADF access hatch.
4. Put the top end of the paper stack face up on the input tray. Refer to decal number 2 and pointer arrows on the ADF input tray.
5. Push the paper stack up against the green document guide and slide it right against the green registration stop, which is in the middle of the paper load window.
6. Turn the green paper load lever 45 degrees into the closed position. This will secure the paper stack. Refer to decal number 3 on the ADF access hatch. The ADF is now loaded and ready for scanning.

Step 2 - Scan the Document The ADF works with many software packages that are compatible with the HP ScanJet color scanners. To scan a document, refer to the user's manual of the software package being used. To Scan a Single Page To scan a single page while the ADF is installed on the scanner, do the following.

1. Remove any pages from the ADF input tray.
2. Raise the ADF.
3. Place the page on the scanner's copyboard glass.
4. Lower the ADF all the way and do the scan.

2. On the control-panel Home screen, scroll to and touch Administration.
3. Touch Troubleshooting.
4. Touch Calibrate Scanner.
5. Touch Calibrate to print the first pass of the calibration target(Print out).
6. Place the first pass of the calibration target face-down in tray 1 so that the arrows are facing into the MFP.
7. Touch Start to print the second pass.
8. Place the calibration target face-up into the ADF, and adjust the side guides.
9. After the calibration target has passed through the ADF once, reposition it face down in the ADF and touch Start.
10. Place the calibration target face-down on the scanner glass, touch Start, and scan the page.
After this pass, the calibration is complete.
Calibration will fails if print quality is not good...ensure that print quality must be in order..
Once calibration successfully done, restart printer several times & verify start button light, if its green every time 'u' re success. if not cleaning required for CCD which is major work & not suggestable..

Anita,

Put the pages in the "multiscan" all at once, not just one sheet at a time. The Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) will feed one sheet of your document at a time untill all of the pages are scanned...
Thanks for using FixYa!

What country are you from ???? here in the US we do not use A4.
Only Legal Letter, check the size of the paper you are using and check the trays to make sure it is set correctly.

1. Remove foreign object from the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) - MP830 / MP530 2. Placing a document on the platen glass / ADF (MP830 / MP530) 3. Straighten the paper 4. Adjust the MP530 document guides 5. Close the Feeder Cover properly MP530
