Canon DR-2050C Path-Through Scanner Logo
Posted on Jul 11, 2008

My Canon DR-2050C keeps jamming when I try to scan more than 1 page???

Every time I try to scan a batch it will do the first page no problem and then halfway through the 2nd it always says "paper jammed, please clear and continue...Canon DR-2050C/2080C Driver version 2.2.10412.07001 (-4426)"

Please help...

    I have the identical problem. There does not seem to be any Canon support for this problem. The path is clear and clean. I have resorted to hand-feeding and am now experiencing a problem with that. Canon, are you out there?

    Having same issue, when it gets to the second page it comes up with paper jammed and same message.

    I have the same problem. Started after I updated the software. Didn't have this problem before. Without multi-page scanning it is pretty useless. Before this problem this was my most useful accessory for my PC.

    This started after upgrading to new software (capture perfect 3.0 and relate job tools). Definitely a software problem because it occurs exactly in the same condition every time. First page scans perfectly, second page stops with "Paper jammed in scanner, clear paper and continue ... (-4426)"

I finally solved my problem. Now it works like new.

Cause:

- The spring that returns the next sheet detector (small black plastic rocker arm between the two rollers on the back side) came off. So the scanner cannot detect transition from one page to the next. This spring is located inside the device and you cannot fix it from the outside.
- You know if you have this problem if you don't hear a "click" sound after each page is scanned. Without the spring attached the rocker will not return on every page. When it doesn't return the scanner think it is still on the first page and will not scan the next page. The "click" after each page is NORMAL. Without the click is the first sign your spring came off.

Solution (Only recommended for people handy with hardware and the unit is no longer under warranty)

1. Turn off power and unplug the device.
2. Pop off the plastic cover to the back of the scanner
3. Remove the screws that holds the plastic cover to the back.
4. Remove the screw by pushing on the retainer clips. DO NOT loosen any gears or motors.
5. Locate the rocker arm and re-connect the (very small) spring

6. Warning - if the LED light pipe falls out be careful how you put it back. This is a transparent widget at the top to route a LED light to the top of the device to indicate the power on status.

Sorry I didn't take pictures. If this sounds too complicated, send it to Canon for repair. Took me about a day to figure out exactly what was wrong and how to disassemble the scanner to fix it.

Good luck.

Dr-2050c multi-page document stops scanning after one or a few pages, inconsistently. Feed lever is down in the multi-page position. Feeder tries to separate the pages: sometimes it succeeds. Document...

If the scanner is scanning but stops after a few pages either it could be because of a) There is insufficient disk space (you need to delete unwanted files or direct the comp to store whre there is space) or b) the rubber rollers are not able to separate pages and feed the papers for scanning.(You need to change the rollers)

DR-2050C Scanner all sheets feed thru only one scans

Do you get an error message after the first scanned image? If not, check your software settings to see if you have the option of single page /multipage scanning. Some software lets the customer choose a single page scan when the SCAN button is pressed.

Check the "Feed Select Lever" to make sure it is in mutifeed position. If not, it will grab all of the docs at once.

DR 2050C

This has something to do the brightness chosen. In the manual mode, if you choose a dark output, the output will have tis area also; if you choose, lighter output, it will omit. In the auto scan mode, the scanner decides what is the best output.

Canon 2050C scanner

In the software, select 'multipage' option. (Check this box). The output will be collated and provided to you as a single file.
