Cleaning the scanner

Replacing parts

A-61560 January 2007
Your scanner needs to be cleaned periodically. If your documents do
not feed easily, if several documents feed at the same time or if streaks
appear on your images, it is time to clean your scanner. The section
entitled, "Supplies and consumables" at the end of this chapter provide
a listing of the supplies required to clean your scanner.
IMPORTANT: Use only non-flammable cleaners such as those provided
through Kodak Parts Services. Do not use household
cleaners and solvents.
Do not use cleaners in confined areas, use with adequate
ventilation.
Do not use cleaners on hot surfaces. Allow surfaces to
cool to ambient temperature before use.
Kodak Scanners use replaceable tires that can feed a wide range of
document types, sizes and thicknesses. Tire life and performance will
vary based on the customer's document set, the frequency of cleaning
and transport and tires, and following the recommended schedule for
changing tires. Nominal tire life is approximately 125,000 pages. Usage
figures are not guaranteed. Customer-operating environments,
document type, the condition of documents being scanned, and not
following the recommended cleaning and replacement procedures, can
cause the life of the consumables to vary. You should change the tires if
you notice an increase in multiple feeds, stoppages, or a decrease in
feeder performance that is not resolved by following the cleaning
procedures.
NOTE: Certain paper types (such as carbonless paper or newsprint),
failure to clean regularly, and/or use of non-recommended
cleaning solvents can shorten roller life.
