Regular Maintenance
Clean the scanner on a regular basis as described below to maintain peak
scanning quality.
CAUTION
• When cleaning the scanner or inside of the scanner, turn OFF
the power switch and unplug the Power Cord from the outlet.
• Do not use excessive force when removing or attaching the
rollers. Doing so may damage them.
• Never use paint thinner, alcohol, or other organic solvents to
clean the scanner. Such solvents can damage or discolor the
exterior of the scanner. They also create a risk of fire or
electrical shock.
Cleaning the Scanner
To clean the exterior of the scanner, dampen a cloth with water or a mild
detergent, wring the cloth out thoroughly, and then wipe the dirt away. Then
use a dry, soft cloth to wipe away any moisture.
Cleaning Inside the Scanner
Dust or paper particles inside the scanner can cause lines in scanned images.
Use a blower for regular cleaning of dust and paper particles from inside the
scanner. After finishing a large scanning job, you should turn OFF the scanner
and then clean any paper particles that are remaining.
