Features
This machine is featured with a large (70-page) ADF used to feed multipage documents to the scanner. Because it has no duplexing ADF, this machine cannot scan 2-sided multiple documents automatically.
Beneath the ADF, there is a 3.7” color touchscreen that anchors a context-sensitive control panel. This touchscreen configures itself to the task at hand, depending on what function you select. For example, when you choose Fax, you’ll see a number pad at the right of the screen.
Design
