Uninstalling Your Scanner - Xerox W130 User Manual

Scanner Options, Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Problem: The installation will not complete successfully. If installation finishes, the scanner's
OneTouch options do not seem to work properly.
A likely cause is that some driver programs are already installed on your computer for another
scanner. They may be interfering with the installation and OneTouch options, and you need to
remove those other drivers and re-install your Xerox
from the Windows Control Panel. Please refer to the user manual provided with your other scanner
hardware for instructions about removing the driver and software for that unit.
Problem: My computer keeps giving me out of hard drive space error messages.
The minimum requirement of free hard drive space is for the installation of the scanner driver and
basic, low resolution, scanning. High resolution scans result in files that can be over 1 gigabyte in
size. Free up some space on your hard drive for the software to be able to save the scanned
images.
Problem: The paper jams the ADF.
To reduce the number of paper jams, smooth and straighten the paper before scanning, and
adjust the guides to the paper size. Paper fed into the ADF at an angle can cause the feed
mechanism to jam. If paper jams are occurring more frequently, try cleaning the roller with a soft
cloth dampened with isopropyl rubbing alcohol. Excessive dust on the roller can make it appear
worn and will cause issues feeding paper. See "Cleaning the Inside of the Scanner" on page 6-5 for
cleaning instructions.
Problem: The ADF won't feed pages properly.
A dirty or worn roller can cause documents to feed in skewed at an angle, or multiple pages to feed
at the same time. First, try cleaning the rollers as described in "Cleaning the Inside of the Scanner"
on page 6-5. If the problem persists, the separation and/or feed rollers may need to be replaced.
Please see "Replacing the Rollers" on page 6-8.
Problem: If the USB cable is disconnected during a scan, the scanner does not reconnect when
the USB cable is plugged back in.
Unplug the power cable from the scanner, and then plug it back in.
If the scanner does not reconnect:
1. Unplug the power cable from the scanner.
2. Restart your computer.
3. After the restart is complete, plug the power cable back in.
Problem: The scanner reports a Double Feed error when there is only one page in the scanner.
Try cleaning the double feed detection sensor. Dust on the sensor may prevent the sensor from
working properly.
