Cleaning the image sensors
Be especially careful when cleaning around the image sensors. The image sensors have glass faces which can be easily
broken if a metal probe is used.
The glass faces of the image sensors may acquire a build-up of dirt and paper dust from the passing documents, which
affects image quality. If streaks, lines, or a loss of image quality are seen, the image sensors should be cleaned.
Open the image cover to expose the glass faces of the image sensors, as shown.
Clean the glass faces using a soft cloth moistened with water. For stubborn stains, a solvent such as isopropyl alcohol
may be used. Cleansing wipes pre-soaked with suitable solvent are available from the Digital Check Store,
, part number 75-1804-907.
Ensure that any cleanser or solvent has been completely wiped off
or dried before closing the image sensor cover.
