Cleaning the Scanner
Cleaning Inside the Automatic Document Feeder
Cleaning the inside of the scanner helps to keep your scanner operating at optimum performance.
You should clean the inside of the scanner at least once a week or after 1,000 pages have been
scanned. If you are getting frequent paper jams, multiple pages feeding at the same time, or
you’re seeing lines in the scanned image, it is time to clean the scanner.
Note:
Be careful when cleaning the rollers. All of the rollers, except the free rollers, are designed to
rotate in one direction only. Do not force the roller to rotate in the opposite direction. Forcing the
roller to rotate will damage it, and cause the scanner to feed pages incorrectly.

Wet a soft cloth with some Isopropyl rubbing alcohol (70%).
2.

3.
Wipe clean the rollers in the scanner. Rotate the rollers to clean the entire surface.
The following illustration shows where the rollers are located in the scanner.
