Cleaning with the Cleaning Cards
(United States Only)
If a black stripe appears on the back-side of scanned images or if dirt
appears on the paper documents upon scanning or for preventative
measures, we recommend that you clean your Canon CR-Series
scanner as needed with a cleaning card. Using a cleaning card will
minimize the frequent cleaning as instructed in this manual.
It is best to perform a cleaning at beginning or end of the day. A cleaning card
does not clean the ink jet nozzles, so please remove the ink cartridge and
perform a nozzle cleaning (See “Cleaning the Ink Jet Nozzles,” on p. 53.)
IMPORTANT
• This operation is for the Cleaning cards that are available only in the
United States.
• Contact your local authorized Canon dealer or service representative
for the available cleaning card.
Prepare for the Cleaning mode
If you perform cleaning with the cleaning cards, follow the procedures
below to set the scanner to the cleaning mode.
A
Turn OFF the scanner.
B
Open the Document Feed / Eject Tray.
C
Pull the Eject Stopper.
D
As shown in the figure, while pressing the START and
Function buttons, press the Power Button once.
Confirm that the power lamp is blinking more than twice before
releasing fingers from the buttons (START and Function button).
If the scanner turned ON properly, the power LED continues to blink.
(FUNCTION LED and the START LED is ON.)
