The “Reset Roller Count” button

：

After scanning over a recommended number of pages (refer to

subsequent section 7.4 Replacing the ADF Roller) through the

ADF, the ADF roller may be worn out and you may experience

problems with document feeding. In this case, it is highly

recommended to replace the ADF roller with a new one. (Note

the replacement of the ADF roller has to be performed only by

authorized service center. Therefore, please return your

scanner for roller replacement.) After replacing the ADF roller,

click the “Reset Roller Count” button to reset the roller count.

Note

：

The lifetime and the replacing procedure vary based on type of

scanner.
