Auto Detect On Scan Not Working?
When scanning in an 8.5x11 document on our MP-C4501, it comes through as 11x17, even though Auto-Detect is the default. We have to select 8.5x11 in order for it to scan as the correct size. Is there a setting that might have been changed?
Thank you!

If Auto Detect is definitely still on and it scans an 8.5x11 document as 11x17, you may have a faulty length or width sensor. There are sensors on the document feeder tray, as well as under the feeder's main cover. If one of these sensors goes bad, pages may get scanned in as the wrong size. (Also check to make sure nothing is blocking any of the sensors, like a stack of paper or a sticky note.)
One way to check this is to scan a document off the glass, also using Auto Detect. If it comes through as the correct size on the glass but not through the feeder, you likely have a bad sensor in the feeder.
