I'm having paper feed problems. What should I do?

• If you have problems feeding originals in your scanner, try these solutions:

  • If multiple pages feed at once, try the following:
    • Remove the originals, fan the edges to separate the sheets, if necessary, and reload them.
    • Load fewer originals at a time.
    • Load only originals that meet the specifications for your scanner.
    • Clean inside the scanner and replace the roller assembly kit, if necessary.
    • Check the pickup rollers and clean, if necessary.
    • Press the  slow mode button to slow down the scanning speed.
    • Use Automatic Feeding Mode in Epson Scan 2 and scan originals one at a time.
    • Use the optional carrier sheet for thin, folded, or irregularly shaped originals.
  • If you see a double feed error in the Epson Scan 2 window or the Document Capture Pro window, start Epson Scan 2, select the Main Settings tab, select the Detect Double Feed setting, and select Off.

    Note: On a Mac, only Epson Scan 2 displays double feed errors. Document Capture for Mac does not include this setting.
