The Two Methods of Scanning: Doc Feeder vs. Glass Scanning 
The first method is using the glass that can be found by lifting the top section of the document processor. This glass piece is officially called the platen, but most people simply call it the glass. The second method is to feed documents through the document feeder on top of the printer. There are pros and cons to both methods.Placing an original document on the glass surface is perfect for single-page documents or images. It blocks out external factors that could otherwise affect the scan. Utilizing the glass can guarantee higher quality on digitized documents.  On the other hand, feeding a document through the doc feeder can allow for multiple scans to be made in one sitting. There are even optional upgrades to the TASKalfa scanners that can allow for double-sided scanning.How to Scan a Document on a Kyocera TASKalfa Copier
In order to proceed in making a scan on a Kyocera TASKalfa multifunction printer, place the original document face-down on the glass or face-up in the doc feeder. Then, press the Send option on the touch screen. A green light indicating readiness should light up around the start button so long as the document is situated properly.Before pressing start, ensure that all the visible settings are selected according to your needs. For example, selecting whether to scan a 2-sided document into another 2-sided document, a 1-sided document into a 2-sided one, or a 2-sided document into a 1-sided one can be selected here. There is also the option to select between left-to-right or top-to-bottom. Left-to-right is the default and recommended option.

Once all of the settings are selected as needed, a recipient needs to be entered. The recipient can be selected as an email address to directly scan to email, a digital folder for simpler organization options, or even a flash drive for a more mobile approach. Once a recipient is entered, initiate the scan with the green ‘Start’ button.
