Appendix A: Service and Maintenance
This appendix discusses regular maintenance which covers scanning lamp replace-
ment and glass plate cleaning.
Lamp Replacement
Your ArtixScan 6000XY scanner consists of 3 scanning lamps:
• One scanning lamp in the transparency scanning carriage (inside the scanner’s top
cover)
• Two scanning lamps in the reflective scanning carriage
In the following situations you should replace the scanning lamps:
• The light level is low. This rule applies to both the transparency and reflective
scanning lamps.
• The scanning lamp does not light up.
Replacing the Transparency Scanning Lamp
1. Power off your scanner.
Note: The scanning lamp is hot. Wait a few minutes for cooling off scanning lamp.
2. Lift the top cover up.
Note: In operation, we recommend you place cardboard on the scan bed to prevent
damaging the glass.
3. Unscrew the 4 screws which holds the 4 corners of the top cover. When unscrewed,
the screws sprint out a little, there is no need to remove the screws.
Lift the top cover
up.
