This chapter describes the required cleaning and maintenance procedures for
the Kodak i5x50 Scanners. The frequency of these procedures will vary with
different scanning environments, paper types and image processing
requirements. High volumes of scanning will demand more frequent cleaning
of the scanner and more frequent replacement of consumables. Lower
scanning volumes will allow longer times between these activities. Refer to the
"Cleaning frequency chart" on the next page for cleaning guidelines. However,
you will need to determine what works best for you. Many years of production
scanning experience has proven that properly cleaning and maintaining your
scanner will result in scanning more paper in less time with less issues. A
properly maintained i5x50 Scanner will provide years of trouble-free operation.
Scanner consumables (tires, pre-separation pads, etc.) and cleaning supplies
are available from your scanner supplier. Consumables are sold in kits of
various sizes. The kits contain the proper mix of tires, rollers, and pre-
separation pads so you can easily replace them at the recommended rate. For
example, only replacing the tires and never replacing the separation roller will
eventually minimize scanner performance. Replacing the consumables at the
recommended frequency will ensure the best performance.
NOTE: The illustrations in this section show the i5250/i5650/i5250V/i5650V
Scanner. All adjustments are the same for the i5850 Scanners unless
otherwise noted.
