Cleaning, Test and Troubleshooting
Although the WideTEK 36 scanner is constructed with the focus on a minimum of cleaning
requirement, it is needful to clean some parts after a period of using.
C.1
Cleaning the Transport Drums
When scanning documents the print color on the paper will soil the rubber material of the
transport drums. This can result in some cases in stripes on the paper of the scanned
document.
To avoid those stripes it is recommended to clean the transport drums in regular intervals.
Cleaning the drums is done very easily.
When the WideTEK 36 is in stand-by mode, start it by tapping the touch panel on any
arbitrary position. The touch panel lights up and a rotating hourglass indicates that the
start sequence is running.
While the start sequence is running the WideTEK 36 can be switched to Self Test mode.
Tapping on the touch panel at least three times switches to the setup mode. After the start
sequence is finished, the touch panel shows the Self Test 1 screen.

The triangle arrows in the middle of the screen control the motor for the transport drum.
To clean the transport drums use a microfiber cleaning cloth and some drops of a
cleaning fluid, e.g. isopropyl alcohol.
