9.2 Cleaning the ADF
The scanner parts may be contaminated with ink, toner
particles or paper coatings. As a result, the scanner needs to
be cleaned occasionally particularly in the following cases:
1. Documents do not feed smoothly or easily;
2. Several documents feed at one time.
The cleaning procedures
1. Wet a soft lint-free cloth with some isopropyl alcohol.

2. Open the ADF front cover as shown below and wipe the
upper feeding roller. Rotate the roller forward with your
finger and repeat the above cleaning procedures until the
entire roller is cleaned. Be careful not to snag or damage
the pick springs.
3. Wipe the pad in the direction from top to bottom. Be
careful not to hook the pick springs.
4. Open the document cover and then pull the ADF Release
Button to open the ADF unit.
5. Wipe the rollers until the rollers are cleaned.
6. Close the document cover, the ADF unit, and finally the ADF
front cover. Your scanner is now ready for use.
