Maintaining the Scanner
The scanner is designed for long-term trouble-free
operation and rarely requires any maintenance. Only an
occasional cleaning of the scanner window is necessary in
order to remove dirt and fingerprints.
7-1. Cleaning the Scan Window
Wipe the scan window with a soft lint-free cloth and a
non-abrasive cleaner to avoid scratching and damaging the
scan window. The scan window may be cleaned while the
scanner is running.
7-2. Replacing the Interface Cable
The standard interface cable is attached to the scanner with
an 10-pin modular connector. When the connector is
properly seated, it is secured in the scanner by a flexible
retention tab. The cable is designed to be field
replaceable.
Replacement cables can be obtained from your authorized
distributor.
To replace the cable, take the following steps.
1. Make sure that the power of your computer is
switched off, and if a power adapter is used,
disconnect it from the scanner cable.
2. Disconnect the old scanner cable from the computer
system.
3. Press down at where indicated below, and gently pull
out the cable.
4. Insert the new interface cable into the bottom of the
scanner until it clicks.
