2. Make the following settings on the Scanner Setting tab.

   Set Paper Protection to On-Low, On-Medium or On-High.

   To enable this feature, select the level of detection you want to use. See the following table for details on each level.

   Level	Explanations
   On-Low	Lower the sensitivity to detect the skew of the originals.
   On-Medium	Detect the skew of the stapled originals and the skew that On-Low could not detect.
   On-High	Increase the sensitivity to detect the skew of the originals.

   
   Note:

   • This feature may not work correctly depending on the original, the paper feeding conditions, and the level set.

   • If false positives occur frequently, try lowering the level.

   • If the original is an irregular shape or is scanned at an angle, it may be mistakenly detected as a paper feed error.

   • When loading multiple originals, make sure to align the leading edge of the originals. Originals may be misdetected as feeding errors if the edges of the originals are not aligned, even if they are scanned correctly.

   • Make sure you align the edge guides with the original to avoid scanning it at an angle.

3. Click Set to apply the settings to the scanner.
