your scanner. There are three basic maintenance tasks.
Overview three basic maintenance tasks
1.
Cleaning.
Keep your scanner clean - the next section describes how to thoroughly clean the internal
scan area. How often you need to clean will depend on how often and the types of media
you scan. If your work primarily involves scanning newspapers and old blueprints you
may need to clean more often than users who only scan brochures and new drawings. Be
sure to clean the scanner when results are not optimal. Particles of dust in the scan area
can sometimes be the sole cause of streaks in the end result. See more under the section
Cleaning the scan area.
2.
Calibration
Calibrate the scanner if your output is not optimal and cleaning (above) does not remedy
the problem. Calibration will renew the scanner's original color and BW precision.
Scanner Calibration is easy to perform. To run, you insert a Calibration Sheet, and start
the Scanner Maintenance program. The rest is done by the program. Make sure the
scanner is clean before calibrating. See ‘Calibration - Scanner Maintenance program’ on
page 49
3.
Replacing the glass plate.
This should be carried out when a worn glass plate affects your results. You may need a
new glass plate if streaks still appear on the image even after cleaning the glass. See ‘Replac-
ing the glass plate’ on page 52
