For some reason, my scanner is scanning every page as a separate PDF file so in a 5 page document, instead of making it 1 PDF file with 5 pages, it is scanning 5 PDF files with 1 page each. How do I fix that?

What should I do if the scanner is not detecting the correct paper size of the document I am scanning?

If the scanner is not detecting the correct paper size of the document you are scanning with the Canon imageFORMULA DR-2580C, you can try the following steps: 1. Ensure that the documents you are scanning fall within the supported size range. The scanner can scan documents ranging in size from business cards and checks to letter/A4 size documents.
