    • When you hold down a book to be scanned with manicured fingers or fingers with artificial nails (Figure 2)
    • When you hold down a book to be scanned with your fingers bent (Figure 3)
    • When fingers that are used to hold down a book to be scanned are captured 1 cm (0.39 in.) or more (Figure 4)
    • When there is text or an image within 5 mm (0.2 in.) around the fingers that are used to hold down a book to be scanned (Figure 5)
    • When a book that has a background color other than white (such as a comic magazine) is scanned (Figure 6)
    • When a book is scanned after [Gray] or [B&W] is selected from the [Color mode] drop-down list in the [Scanning] tab of the ScanSnap Setup Window
