Replacing the inkjet blotter
Scanners with endorsement printers include an inkjet blotter that absorbs excess ink from the
endorsement process. Over time, the blotter might stop absorbing ink effectively and so should be
replaced. Scanners with endorsement printers come with five replacement blotters.
To replace the inkjet blotter:
1.
Remove the front cover of the scanner.
At the back of the scanner, above the franker
cartridge, you can see the top of the inkjet blotter, as
shown below:
2.
With your finger or tweezers, remove the inkjet
blotter from its slot.
3.
Dispose of the used blotter.
4.
Insert the replacement inkjet blotter into the slot.
Replacing the paper roll for the printer
If your scanner has a printer, the following steps describe how to replace the paper roll.
1.
Press the printer door release button and completely
open the printer door.
2.
Remove the empty paper roll from the paper
compartment.
3.
Insert the new paper roll into the compartment, with
the end of the paper roll rolling from the top.
4.
Pull the paper out of the compartment and close the
printer door so that the end of the paper sticks out of
the compartment (as pictured). Push the door closed in
the center of the printer door.
Make sure the cover is completely closed. If you push the cover from the sides, the cover might
not close completely. When closed correctly, both sides of the printer cover are flush with the
scanner.
5.
Rip off any access paper sticking out of the printer cover.
