You may need to clean the ADF feed mechanism if documents do not feed
easily into the ADF, or several feed in at the same time.
1.
Dampen a soft cloth with some 95% Isopropyl rubbing alcohol.
2.
Open the ADF cover.
3.
Wipe the feed roller from side to side. Rotate the roller to clean its entire
surface.
4.
Wipe the ADF pad from top to bottom. Be careful not to snag the cloth
on the springs on either side of the pad.
Note:
Please be careful when cleaning the roller. The roller is designed to
rotate in one direction only. As you’re cleaning the roller, make sure it rotates
easily, and continue rotating it in that direction while wiping it clean. Do
NOT force the roller to rotate in the opposite direction. Forcing the roller to
rotate will damage it, and may cause the scanner to feed pages incorrectly.
