Cleaning The Scanner - Epson Expression 10000XL User Manual

Cleaning the Scanner

To keep your scanner operating at its best, clean it periodically.
1. Press the . power button to turn the scanner off, and unplug the power cord.
Caution: Always unplug the scanner before cleaning.
2. Use a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent to clean the outer case.
Caution: Be careful not to spill liquid or let water get into the scanner mechanism
or electronic components. This could permanently damage them.
Never use alcohol, thinner, or corrosive solvent to clean the scanner. These
chemicals can damage the scanner components as well as the case.
3. Clean dust and smudges from the document table glass with a soft, dry cloth (a
microfiber glass cleaning cloth is recommended). You can also use compressed air
spray cleaner.
To remove grease, use pretreated lens or scanner wipes, or a small amount of glass
cleaner on a soft cloth. Dry the document table glass afterwards.
Caution: Never spray glass cleaner directly on the document table. Always spray
it on a cloth first and then wipe the glass.
Never use a harsh or abrasive brush or cleaning product to clean the document
table. A damaged glass surface can decrease the scanning quality.
Avoid leaving photos on the scanner glass for extended periods of time, or
residue from the photos may adhere to the glass.
