clean the glass
Dirty glass, from dust, smudges, hair, and so on, slows down performance and
affects the accuracy of features such as Fit to Page and Copy.
1 Turn off the unit, unplug the power cord, and raise the scanner lid.
2 Clean the glass with a soft cloth or sponge slightly moistened with a
nonabrasive glass cleaner.
Caution! Do not use abrasives, acetone, benzene, or carbon
tetrachloride on the glass; these can damage it. Do not place
liquids directly on the glass. They may seep under it and damage
the unit.
3 Dry the glass with a chamois or cellulose sponge to prevent spotting.
clean the white strip
Minor debris can accumulate on the white strip located underneath the scanner’s
lid.
1 Turn off the unit, unplug the power cord, and raise the scanner lid.
2 Clean the white strip with a soft cloth or sponge slightly moistened with a
mild soap and warm water.
3 Wash the strip gently to loosen debris; do not scrub the strip.
4 Dry the strip with a chamois or soft cloth.
Caution! Do not use paper-based wipes as these may scratch the
strip.
5 If this does not clean the strip well enough, repeat the previous steps using
isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol, and wipe the strip thoroughly with a damp
cloth to remove any residual alcohol.
