Cleaning the glass
flat
• If you have a simplex scanner, proceed to the section entitled,
“Calibrating the cameras”.
• If you have a duplex scanner, follow the instructions below for
cleaning the glass flat.
Dust or smudges on the glass flat can cause vertical streaks or make
the image fuzzy; therefore, the glass flat should be cleaned daily.
Depending on use, it may be necessary to clean the glass flat more
frequently.
NOTE: For safety reasons, power to the transport motor is shut off
when the scanner cover is opened.
Cleaning the front side only:
1. Open the scanner transport cover.
2. Carefully clean the front surface of the glass with a Staticide wipe.
Inspect the glass flat after cleaning to ensure all dust and residue
has been removed.
3. Close the scanner transport cover.
Cleaning both sides:
When you need to clean both the front and back side of the glass flat, it
must be removed from the scanner. Do not twist or turn the glass flat
while removing it so as not to damage it.
1. Open the scanner transport cover.
2. Place your fingers on each end of the glass flat.
