Features of the Scanner
The main features of the document scanner DR-C125 are described
below.
● Compact Design
The scanner has a compact size of 300 (W) x 336 (H) x 235 (D)
(11.81" (W) x 13.2" (H) x 9.25" (D)) mm when the document feed is
open. A newly designed feed mechanism saves space by
eliminating the need for space to eject paper at the front of the
scanner.
● Fast Document Feeding
Documents can be scanned at a speed of up to 25 pages per
minute (when scanning one-sided or two-sided documents of A4
size at 200 dpi).
● Two Eject Paths for Scanning a Variety of Documents
Use the U-turn path to scan paper of standard thickness, or use the
straight path to scan cards and other thick documents.
● High Image Quality
The 600 dpi optical resolution sensor incorporated in the scanner
enables documents to be scanned with high image quality.
● USB 2.0 Interface
The scanner supports Hi-Speed USB 2.0.
● Color/Grayscale Support
Documents can be scanned in 24-bit color or 256-level grayscale.
● Supports a Variety of Scanning Modes
The scanner supports the following scanning modes, depending on
the document type:
• Single-sided or double-sided scanning (with Skip Blank Page
function)
• Continuous or single sheet feed
● Card Scan
You can scan business or ID cards.
● Paper Size Detection
The scanner automatically detects the size of a scanned document
and eliminates any unnecessary space around the edges of the
image when storing the image, even when storing a document of
irregular size.
● Auto Color Detection
The scanner detects whether the scanned document is in color,
grayscale, or black and white (binary), and saves the image
accordingly.

● Full Auto Mode
A Full Auto Mode is provided in CaptureOnTouch and the scanner
driver to allow scanning under automatically determined conditions.
Scanning conditions such as the color mode and page size are set
automatically based on the document being scanned.
● Auto Resolution Detection
When enabled in the CaptureOnTouch or scanner driver settings,
this function detects the content of documents and determines the
scanning resolution automatically.
● Folio Scan
You can scan folded documents. The scanner will scan both sides
and combine the scanned images into a single image.
● Deskew
The scanner straightens scanned images when it detects that the
document was placed askew.
● Ultrasonic Double Feed Detection
Ultrasonic waves are used to detect pages that are fed at the same
time as well as the space between pages. Scanning stops if a
double feed is detected.
● Text Enhancement Modes
The scanner is equipped with the Advanced Text Enhancement
Mode (only for Windows), for enhancing the text of documents with
dark or uneven backgrounds, and the Advanced Text Enhancement
II mode, for enhancing the text when both the text and background
are light.
These modes may not work, depending on the type of document.
● Color Drop-out
The scanner is equipped with a Color Drop-out function that
enables you to specify a color for the scanner to omit from the
scanned image during black and white or grayscale scanning.
● Skip Blank Page Function
The scanner is equipped with a Skip Blank Page function that
enables you to scan a document without storing images of blank
pages, regardless of whether each page of the document is twosided or one-sided. Both sides are scanned, but saving the image
is skipped for scan images judged to be from a blank page.

0-00-DR-C125_RG_UK.book Page 22 Thursday, September 8, 2011 6:03 PM

● Prescan Function
The scanner is equipped with a Prescan function that allows you to
adjust the contrast and brightness of a prescanned image and then
send the adjusted image to the application software, without
needing to scan the document again.
● Character/Line Emphasis Function
If characters and lines in scanned images are not clearly visible, you
can use this function to adjust their thickness during scanning.
● Scan First
Pressing Start Button starts CaptureOnTouch. You can then
perform a scan simply by following the on-screen guidance.
● Select Scan Job
You can register scanning conditions and methods for processing
scanned images as jobs, and register up to 10 jobs in
CaptureOnTouch. By simply selecting a registered job, you can
perform scanning operations in a determined order.
● Auto Start
The scanner is equipped with an auto start function, which enables
scanning to be automatically started when a document placed in the
feeder is detected.
● Sleep Mode
The scanner is designed to save energy by entering the sleep mode
when it is not scanning documents.
IMPORTANT
Depending on the bundled software you are using, all of the
preceding features may not be available.

IMPORTANT
The documents to be scanned must satisfy certain criteria. Read the
following items carefully.
• When scanning multiple documents of different sizes, place the
documents so that they cover the entire span of the feed rollers.

• Scanning documents before the ink is dry can cause problems with
the scanner. Always make sure that the ink on a document is dry
before scanning it.
• Scanning documents that are written in pencil or similar material
may make the rollers and scanning glass dirty, which can lead to
smudges on the scanned image and transfer the dirt to subsequent
documents. Always clean the internal parts of the scanner after
scanning such documents.
• When scanning a two-sided document that is printed on thin paper,
the image on the opposite side of each page may show through. In
this case, adjust the scanning intensity in the application software
before scanning the document.
• It is recommended that thin documents are fed one sheet at a time.
• Scanning the following types of documents can cause a paper jam
or malfunction. To scan such a document, make a photocopy of the
document and then scan the photocopy.

Methods

Placing Documents for Standard
Feeding

Use the two levers on the scanner to switch the feed and eject
methods based on the type of document you are scanning.

Ordinarily, standard feeding should be used when scanning multiple
documents of a standard size at one time. Standard feeding enables
the multiple documents to be fed while separating each page.

Set the eject selection lever to the U-turn path position ( ).

When scanning documents that contain both standard paper and
plastic cards, use the straight path.

Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the
document to be scanned.

0-00-DR-C125_RG_UK.book Page 29 Thursday, September 8, 2011 6:03 PM

Place the document.
Insert the document in the feed tray so that the front is facing
forward and the top is facing upward.

After inserting the document in the document feeder, align the
document guides with both edges of the document.

IMPORTANT
• When placing documents into the feed tray, take care not to cut
your hands on the edges of the paper.
• Make sure that the document does not exceed the loading limit
marks ( ) on the document guides. Up to 30 pages of ordinary
plain paper (80 g/m2) can be loaded at the same time.
• Before you place a document, check to make sure it does not
contain paper clips, staples, or other small metal objects. These
items may cause a fire or electrical shock, damage the document,
or cause a paper jam or scanner malfunction.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that may get caught in the
scanner while you are using it. This may result in personal injury. Be
extra careful of neckties and long hair. If anything gets caught in the
scanner, immediately turn OFF the power switch, and disconnect
the power cord from the power outlet to stop scanning.
• Always smooth out any folds or curls in your documents before
placing them into the feeder. If the leading edge of a document is
curled, it may cause a paper jam.
• If feeding stops due to a system error or paper jam while the
scanner is scanning, resolve the problem, make sure that the
scanned image of the last page that was successfully fed has been
stored, and then resume scanning the remaining document pages.
• After you finish scanning, close the document feed tray to prevent
damage to the scanner while it is not being used.
• Although standard feeding can be used in combination with the
straight path when scanning, multi-page documents will be ejected
in reverse order in such cases.
• If you select the [Upside-down feeding] check box in the scanner
driver settings, you can insert documents into the scanner in the
opposite orientation. Refer to the User Manual for detailed
information.

document that has multiple pages fastened together, set document
feeding to non separation mode. This enables the placed document to
be scanned without the pages being separated, regardless of the
number of pages.

Set the feed selection lever and the eject selection lever.
Set the feed selection lever to the non separation position (upper
position). The feed selection indicator will light orange.
Set the eject selection lever to the straight path position ( ).

Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the
document.

Place the document in the document feed tray.
IMPORTANT
• With the straight path, documents are ejected at the front of the
scanner. Do not place anything that will block output near the
document eject area. Also, install the scanner on a smooth
surface to enable documents to be smoothly ejected.

Placing Cards

Adjust the document guides to fit the width of the card to
be scanned.

• When scanning multiple page documents that are fastened
together, such as invoices, place the documents so that the
edge that is fastened together is facing down.

Daily Maintenance
Replacing Consumable Parts
The two rollers (feed roller and retard roller) installed in the scanner
are consumable parts. The feed roller and retard roller wear with
scanning. If the feed roller and retard roller are worn, documents may
not feed correctly and paper jams or double-feed errors may occur.
When more than 100,000 pages have been fed (total number of pages
fed by the scanner), a message prompting you to replace the rollers is
displayed when the computer is started.

If this message begins to be displayed at startup, purchase an
exchange roller kit and replace the worn parts with the consumable
parts included in the kit (feed roller and retard roller). For details on the
exchange roller kit, see p. 65.
Furthermore, the counter in the scanner that records the number of
pages fed also needs to be reset when you replace the rollers. (See
p. 56)

Opening and Closing the Front Unit

Open the document feed tray. Press the OPEN button and
pull open the front unit toward you.

Hint

Common Problems and Solutions
This section provides recommended solutions to common problems.
If you have a problem that is not solved by the following, contact your
local authorized Canon dealer.
Problem 1

The scanner will not turn on.

Solutions

Confirm that the AC adapter is plugged firmly into a
power outlet.

Problem 2

The scanner is not recognized.

Solutions

(1) Confirm that the scanner is properly connected to
the computer with a USB cable.
(2) Confirm that the scanner is turned on. See the
previous “Problem 1” if the scanner does not turn
on.
(3) The computer’s USB interface may not support the
scanner. The scanner cannot be guaranteed to
work with all USB interfaces.
(4) Confirm that the supplied USB cable is used to
connect the scanner to the computer. The scanner
cannot be guaranteed to work with all available USB
cables.
(5) If the scanner is connected to the computer via a
USB hub, try removing the hub and connecting
directly to the computer.

Problem 3

Documents feed askew (scanned images are
slanted).

Solutions

(1) Align the document guides to fit the documents as
closely as possible, and load the documents so that
they feed straightly.
(2) Enable [Automatically straightens skewed images]
(or [Deskew]) in the scanner driver settings.
(3) If many pages have been scanned since roller
cleaning, clean the rollers. If documents still feed
askew, roller replacement or other maintenance
may be needed. Refer to the User Manual for
detailed information.

Problem 4

Documents are not scanned according to the
settings configured in the scanner driver.

Solutions

When you scan using a job registered with
CaptureOnTouch, the registered job settings have
priority over the scanner driver settings. Edit existing job
settings, or create a new job using the desired scanning
conditions.

Problem 5

If white lines or streaks appear in scanned images.

Solutions

Clean both sides of the scanner glass, and the rollers. If
a sticky substance such as glue or correction fluid is
found, carefully wipe with just enough pressure to clean
the area where the lines appear. If the problem cannot
be solved by cleaning, the internal glass may be
scratched. Contact your local authorized Canon dealer.

Problem 6

Pages are missing.

Solutions

Then the scanner driver’s [Scanning Side] setting is
[Skip blank page], documents with very little black may
be unintentionally skipped. Decrease the [Set the
likelihood of skipping blank page] value, or select
another scan mode setting such as [Simplex] or
[Duplex]. Refer to the User Manual for detailed
information. If pages are skipped due to the document
double feeding, see “Problem 7 Documents jam (or
double-feed)”.

Problem 7

Documents jam (or double-feed).

Solutions

(1) If the roller has been installed correctly, clean it if
necessary.
(2) Proper scanning may not be possible when
document pages stick together due to static
electricity. Fan the documents before you load
them.
(3) Set the feed selection lever to the non separation
position, and manually feed the scanner one page at
a time.

0-00-DR-C125_RG_UK.book Page 60 Thursday, September 8, 2011 6:03 PM

Problem 8

Multiple pages of scanned images cannot be saved
to a single file.

Solutions

Depending on the file format, multiple scanned image
pages cannot be saved as a single file with
CaptureOnTouch Lite and CaptureOnTouch.
File type

Processing for multiple pages

BMP (Windows
only), JPEG

Scanned images are always saved one
page per file.

PPTX (Windows
only)

Multi-page images are always saved to a
single file.

TIFF, PDF

You can save multiple pages to a single
file by clicking
and selecting [Save all
pages as one file] in the displayed dialog
box.

Problem 9

All of the placed documents have been scanned, but
the scanned image does not appear on the
application.

Solutions

When [Panel-Feeding] or [Automatic Feeding] is
selected as the feeding method on the scanner driver’s
setting screen, a scanning operation will not continue
after all of the documents are fed, as the scanner awaits
additional documents to be fed. You can finish the
operation and send the scanned images to the
application by pressing the [STOP] button on the
operating panel.

Problem 10 Memory becomes insufficient and scanning stops.
Solutions

If you configure scanning conditions that use a large
amount of the computer's memory, scanning may stop
because of insufficient memory. Although this depends
on the computer's memory size, the possibility of
insufficient memory increases if any of the following
scanning conditions overlap.
• [Color Mode] is set to [24-bit Color]
• A large page size (e.g. Legal) is specified as the [Page
Size]. Alternatively, the page size is set to [Scanner's
Maximum].
• A high resolution (600dpi etc.) is specified for [Dots per
inch].
If an error message appears due to insufficient memory
while scanning is in progress, exit the application,
change the scanning conditions (e.g. reduce the
resolution or page size) and then try scanning again. In
addition, the amount of memory used can be contained
by turning off [Moire Reduction] and [Please change
prevent bleed through and remove] if they are set to on.

Problem 11 Scanned images are upside down.
Solutions

Confirm the scanner driver settings.
In Windows, confirm that the [Upside-down feeding]
check box in the [Feeding] tab is cleared.
In Mac OS X, confirm that the [Upside-down feeding]
check box in the [More] dialog box is cleared.

Clearing a Paper Jam
When paper jams occur during scanning, use the following procedure
to clear them.

WARNING

When the jammed document is on the document ejecting
side, open the document eject tray.

Be careful when removing jammed paper. It is possible to cut your
hand on the edge of a sheet of paper.

Remove any documents that have been left in the eject
tray.

Remove the jammed document.

0-00-DR-C125_RG_UK.book Page 62 Thursday, September 8, 2011 6:03 PM

Return the document eject tray to its original position.
Make sure that it is completely closed by pushing until
you hear a click.

Remove the jammed document.

IMPORTANT

Press the OPEN button and pull open the front unit
toward you.

Make sure to pull the document out carefully, without applying too
much force. If the jammed paper tears while you are pulling it out,
make sure to remove any remaining pieces from inside the
scanner.

0-00-DR-C125_RG_UK.book Page 63 Thursday, September 8, 2011 6:03 PM

Close the front unit by gently pushing it up on both sides
until it clicks into place. Make sure that the front unit is
completely closed by pushing until you hear a click.

After removing the jammed paper, check to see if the last page
was scanned correctly, and then continue scanning.
Hint
When a paper jam or other problem occurs while [Rapid recovery
system] is enabled in the scanner driver, the image of the last
document that was scanned properly is saved before scanning is
stopped. Therefore, you can quickly resume scanning after resolving
the cause of the interruption. As the image of the document that was
being fed at the time of the interruption may not be saved in such
cases, be sure to verify the last scanned image before resuming the
operation.
