Cleaning with the Cleaning Cards
(U.S.A. Only)
If a black stripe appears on the back-side of scanned images or if dirt
appears on the paper documents upon scanning or for preventative
measures, we recommend that you clean your Canon CR-Series
scanner as needed with a cleaning card. Using a cleaning card will
minimize the frequent cleaning as instructed in this manual.
It is best to perform a cleaning at beginning or end of the day. A
cleaning card does not clean the ink jet nozzles, so please remove the
ink cartridge and perform a nozzle cleaning (See “Cleaning the Ink Jet
Nozzles,” on p. 49.)
IMPORTANT
• This operation is for U.S.A. Cleaning cards are available only in U.S.A.
• Contact your local authorized Canon dealer or service representative
for the available cleaning card.
