How to have white background on small documents

All areas outside of the document will be black only. I don't know how you were getting white background.
If you want white background around your scanned image, a) stick the check (in this example) onto a white paper and scan the whole sheet. Ensure double detection is off. b) You can also do this in software, by cropping a larger area outside the scanned image.

There are many options to view the scanned image like Actual size or Fit or Fit vertically or Fit width. The same image will appear different in each case.

Setting correct paper size

By trial and error I found that the paper is specified with the width then the lenght of the paper.

Even though the graphics show you that you are printing the image either vertical or horizontal I still wanted to know when I set up my non standard paper size of 24x 6 which was first the width of the paper or the length. I didn't see that in the manual. All our problems should be so small.

Thanx for the reply though

Epson 9800 Prints black dotted vertical line

This is a workaround - I too need a definitive answer. Symptom: black dotted vertical line 1/2 to 3/4" from leftmost image edge. I have begun adding single vertical line to my prints .25" from the left edge of the paper to force the "dots" off my print - this seems to have the desired affect, but it does not answer the cause or provide a true remedy (it will save many of your prints while we wait for complete solution). dkh
