8.5 Replacing Scanner Parts
This section describes how to replace those scanner parts that are liable to wear down over long-term
use. Changing parts will renew your scanner and ensure optimal results. Your scanner monitors usage of
parts and will warn you when it is time for a replacement through a message in the iJET Panel display
window.
Some scanner models are designed so users can replace parts on their own (user-replaceable parts)
while other scanner models will require a service technician. The instructions in this section apply only for
scanners with user-replaceable parts. You can see which parts are user-replaceable on your scanner in
