SOURCE: Document in ADF Redo operation after checking document in ADF and

UPDATE..............

I Solved the problem....

The problem is in the gear box on the document feeder......The (Poor Quality) tension spring against the gear harness becomes stressed to the point where it bends out of it's 90 degree angle from (FYI - below average) use . It fails to function properly causing mis-alignment of the gears during document loading.

In order to fix this you need to remove the drive motor, gear housing and some gears. Bend the tension spring back to the correct 90 degree angle. and reassemble it again. Not for the impatient person.

SOURCE: Canon 1023if auto feeder not working. Says check

The document feeder has multiple sensors in it. sometimes they hang up and stay stuck out of place. Other sensors might get paper dust on the face of the sensor. If you can open the document cover, locate the sensors and see if any are ajar or the sensor flag fell out of place. Also look to see if a paper is stuck in any of the paper path areas. Not seeing the machine it is hard to say if it fed paper and says check document, if it did, clean the feed wheels with a wet paper towel.

Hi,

Clean the ADF rollers and pad with alcohol.

Check to see if your ADF has done over 90 000 copies and if it has, change the ADF pick up assembly only.

Good Luck

SOURCE: Documents will not feed from the ADF

Is there a more permanent fix in the meantime? I'm just tired of fiddling each time that I use the ADF

SOURCE: My printer is a Canon

I had the exact same problem. The Alarm light was always on and the screen said "Document in ADF. When I pressed "OK" it would read "Eject the document". Even after I placed paper in the ADF and the paper would feed the document through it, the error and the Alarm light was still there. I found the solution, Lift the cover to expose the flat bed scanner glass. Under the cover, there is a long white bar with two white tabs perpendicular to the white bar. One of the tabs was retracted. Pull on the tab until it is fully extended. The alarm turns off and there is no longer the error. Simple solution to a damn annoying issue.

Theie is no paper jammed in the ADF, but the screen keeps readindg Error Document in ADf, Check document

Please open the top cover to the Auto Document Feeder (ADF) and examine the paper sensor switch located in the middle area, just before where the paper enters the ADF. You will be looking for a small peice of paper lodged in the sensor, or dust in the sensor. If you detect either, clear it out and try the ADF again.
If you do not see a small "flag" sticking up from the sensor (looks like a backworkds "L") then the sensor has been broken, and will need to be replaced.

What does document in ADF mean

Hello, Thanks for using Fixya today.
ADF is auto document feeder, used to feed a document into a scanner or printer. The error is associated when there is a document or paper jam at the document feeder, or paper trail.
This would happen mostly on scanners and all in one printers after witch a document is left in the feeder or there was a paper jam occurrence. We hope this answers your questions today?
Please contact us again if you still have a issue, or need help with anything else.
Thanks for using Fixya.com

How does one clean the glass where the document is fed into?

The ADF (auto document feeder) hinges forward. The ADF is located on the top of the machine and is where you place the paper to make a copy. Open that top and using a flash light look for a piece of glass (approx. 1/2" x 9"). With gentle pressure, clean the glass with alcohol. This usually fixes issues related to "steaks on the copy".

I have a message coming up that I don't know what it means.

ADF = Auto Document Feeder (Usually on top)

RADF = Rear Auto Document Feeder, (On the back)

Something is stuck in one of these, a piece of paper, foam, paperclip, twist tie . . . it could be anything. Follow the squealing sound and check the paper feeder rollers.

Find what is in the way and remove it.

Cheers.
