Cleaning and Maintenance
Your scanner is designed to be maintenance-free. However, constant care and
maintenance can keep your scanner working smoothly.
Cleaning the Scanner
When you use this scanner for the very first time after installation, it is
suggested to clean the scanner before use.
If unusual dots or lines are found in your scanned image, it is very likely that
dust particles or other foreign objects are inside the scanner. You may clean the
scanner to rectify the problem.
The following describes how to clean the scanner:
1.Insert the special cleaning paper into the page feed slot of the scanner.
Attention •
Do use the cleaning paper included in our package box.
Remember to replace the cleaning paper in a safe and clean place
when you finish using it.
•Do not use anything other than our cleaning paper to clean your
scanner. Using other sheet will influence the scan quality or even
lead to scanner malfunction.
2. From the Windows START menu, point to All Programs > Your Scanner
Model Name, and then click Clean Wizard.
3. Click Clean Now from the window that pops up, and click Clean from the
window that pops up.
4. The scanner pulls the cleaning paper through the scanner, which completes
the scanner cleaning.
Calibrating the Scanner
Calibrate the scanner if colours appear in areas that should be white, or colours
of the scanned image and the original vary a lot. This allows you to adjust and
compensate for variations that can occur in the optical component over time.
The following describes how to calibrate the scanner:
1. Insert the special calibration sheet face down into the page feed slot of the
scanner.
