What should I do if the status indicator blinks rapidly and no scan is possible?

Check the following:

▘Is the scanner’s built-in disk full? Connect the scanner to a computer to move or delete files.

The scanner recognizes the built-in disk as “full” and the Power button blinks when it has less than 2MB remaining for 300 DPI setting, less than 5MB for 600 DPI setting, and less than 15MB for 1200 DPI setting).

▘Is the memory card full? The Power button blinks when the free space on the memory card is below 15MB. Use another card if necessary.

▘Is the memory card inserted properly into the memory card slot? Re-insert the card and try again. Make sure the memory cards are in FAT or FAT32 file formats only, not NTFS or any other file format. Reformat the memory card if necessary to use it with the scanner.

▘Is there a jam in the feeder? Power the scanner off and then on again to continue the sheet feed. If the item is still jammed, open the cover and gently pull out the item (Refer to page 4-1 “Clear paper jam).

▘Is the cover open? Make sure the cover is snapped firmly in place.

▘Did you insert the next original before the scanning process of the previous one was completed? Turn the scanner off and back on and try again. Make sure that you scan the next original only after the scanning process of the previous one has completed.

▘Does the length of the original exceed the maximum acceptable size? Refer to “Suitable and Unsuitable Original Types” on page 3-1 for more information.
