Scanner Maintenance program

Why maintain the scanner

Regular Scanner Maintenance is a sure way to minimize costly downtime. The
three routine maintenance procedures Cleaning, Camera alignment and
Calibration will improve image quality and reduce service costs.
These three maintenance functions are closely entwined and they should all be
performed in a single maintenance session, starting with cleaning the scan area
and ending with calibration. The reason is that if you clean the glass or adjust
the cameras then you will have changed conditions in the scanning area and
will need to calibrate in order to readjust black and white. This works the other
way as well - scanner calibration must always be preceded by cleaning and
camera alignment, to get reliable calibration results.

Use the software

The Scanner Maintenance software is a wizard which guides you through the
whole process of maintenance. All you have to do is follow the instructions on
