You may need to clean the ADF feed mechanism if your documents do
not feed easily into the ADF, or several feed in at the same time.
To clean the ADF:
1. Dampen a soft cloth with some Isopropyl rubbing alcohol (95%).
2. Press the ADF cover release on the top left of the scanner body to
open the Automatic Document Feeder cover.
3. Wipe the feed roller from side to side. Rotate the roller to clean its
entire surface.
Please be careful when cleaning the roller. The roller is
NOTE:
designed to rotate in one direction only. As you're cleaning the roller,
make sure it rotates easily, and continue rotating it in that direction
while wiping it clean. Do NOT force the roller to rotate in the opposite
direction. Forcing the roller to rotate will damage it, and may cause the
scanner to feed pages incorrectly.
4. Wipe the pad from top to bottom. Be careful not to snag the cloth on
the springs on either side of the pad.
5. Close the cover when you're finished.
