If dust is detected at all 5 points (A, B, C, D, E), the machine will issue an alert in response to the placement of an original in the ADF, thus promoting the user to
clean the points.
Alert Message:
The machine may read the dust, which may show as lines in the output image. Clean the narrow segment of glass indicated in the drawing with a soft cloth moistened
with water (and well wrung).
Press the Close button to reset the alert.
At the start of a job, the machine executes dust detection once again, and will use a point with little or no dust as the read point.
*1: read point at the end of the previous job.
*2: point with little or no dust.
