Daily Maintenance

Clean the scanner on a regular basis, as described below, to maintain
peak scanning quality.
WARNING
• When cleaning the scanner and the inside of the scanner, close the
feed tray to turn OFF the power and disconnect the USB cables.
• Do not use spray cleaners to clean the scanner. Precision
mechanisms, such as the light source, may get wet, and cause a
malfunction.
• Never use paint thinner, alcohol, or other organic solvents to clean
the scanner. The exterior of the scanner may become deformed,
discolored, or melted. Such solvents may also cause a fire or
electric shock.

Cleaning the Outside of the Scanner

To clean the outside of the scanner, wipe off any dirt with a cloth that
has been dampened with water or mild detergent solution and
thoroughly wrung out, and then wipe the scanner dry with a clean dry
cloth.
CAUTION
Do not use a coarse cloth or dirty cloth because it may result in
scratches.

Cleaning the Inside of the Scanner

Dust or paper particles inside the scanner may cause lines or
smudges to appear on scanned images. Use compressed air to
periodically clean dust and paper particles from the document feed
opening and the inside of the scanner. After finishing a large scanning
job, turn OFF the scanner and then clean out any paper particles
remaining inside the scanner.
Cleaning the Scanning Glass and the
Rollers
If scanned images contain streaks, or if the scanned documents
become dirty, the scanning glass or rollers inside the scanner may be
dirty. Clean them periodically.
