About scanner maintenance

Introduction

Scanner maintenance will ensure optimal performance of your scanner.

There are three basic maintenance tasks:

Cleaning

Keep your scanner clean – the next section describes how to thoroughly clean the in-

ternal scan area. How often you need to clean the scanner will depend on how often

and the types of media you scan. If your work primarily involves scanning newspapers

and old blueprints you may need to clean more often than users who only scan

brochures and new drawings. Be sure to clean the scanner when results are not optimal.

Particles of dust in the scan area can often be the cause of streaks in the end result.

See

'Cleaning the Scan Area' on page 65

Calibration and camera alignment

Scanner Calibration is easy to perform and most of it is completely automatic. Scanner

calibration includes camera alignment and calibration of B&W and color parameters.

To run, you insert a Calibration Sheet, and start the Scanner Maintenance program.

Be sure to calibrate if your output is not optimal. Make sure the scanner is clean before

calibrating. See

Replacing worn parts

This should be carried out when you get a warning on your screen or when a worn

part affects your results.

Replaceable parts are:

a. the glass plate. See

b. the lamp. See

c. the white background platen. See

d. the dust filters. See
