Abstract
A scanning apparatus includes a body, a transparent plate, a scanning module, and a color reference slice. A paper-feeding track is formed within the body, and a scanning window is formed at a side wall of the paper-feeding track. A coupling groove is formed at an edge of the scanning window. Both the transparent plate and the color reference slice have an edge being inserted into the coupling groove, such that the transparent plate covers the scanning window while the color reference slice leans against a side surface of the transparent plate facing the paper-feeding track. The scanning module is disposed within the body corresponding to the scanning window, such that a paper to be scanned and the color reference slice are located in the same plane, and the color reference slice and the paper are scanned under the same optical conditions.
