Hints/Tips
Regular use of the "Hole Fill" function in the scanner requires daily cleaning
of the paper guide on the automatic document handler (ADH). The paper
guide is the long, dark gray, plastic strip on the underside of the ADH. It has
a pattern of very thin images and two cutouts for the rollers. The following
steps should be used to clean this part:
1. Apply "Xerox Lens and Mirror Cleaner (XPN 43P81)" to a clean, lint
free, non-abrasive cloth.
2. Lift up the ADH.
3. Identify the flat, dark gray paper guide on the right-hand underside of
the ADH. The paper guide is a long, flat piece of ribbed plastic, 5
inches from the right-hand side of the ADH. The paper guide is
approximately 13 inches in length and 1 inch wide and pivots in the
right/left motion when touched. This part also has two "cutouts" in it with
two rollers resting in the cutouts.
4. Rub the cloth in the right-to-left motion across the paper guide, parallel
to the ribs, until the entire paper guide is clean and free of black toner
and white paper dust.
Be careful not to dislodge the thin belt near the roller closest to the front
of the scanner.
The system may inadvertently white-fill small "blocks" (approximately 3-5
mm in size) of a scanned image in areas of the original that are similar to
the pattern on the document feeder paper guide. To eliminate these white-
fill blocks, disable the "Hole Fill" option.
Changing the "Hole Fill" setting after an image has been previewed through
the document feeder does not affect the previewed image or the final scan
of that image ("Accept"), if the setting is changed.
When performing preview scans in the "Black and white (1 bit)" mode, the
preview image may appear dark for certain settings and types of images
being scanned. This is due to scaling of the image for display on the
monitor. If this occurs and your resolution setting is above 200 dpi, try un-
checking "Fast Preview" in the Options menu and previewing again.
Changing the zoom level could also help improve the appearance of the
preview image.
Scanning photographs through the document handler is not recommended
due to the potential for damaging the original, as well as the susceptibility to
"streaks" in the resulting scanned image.
