The SF-530 version of these machines has the ability to run it’s own cleaning page. This may also work in
the SF-5100 machines, but we were not able to confirm this.
1.
Press the SETUP key on the front panel.
2.
Press the Right or Left ARROWS until "MAINTENANCE" appears.
3.
Press the START/ENTER key.
4.
The display will show "DRUM CLEAN?"
5.
Press the START/ENTER key.
6.
A Cleaning page will then print.
7.
These machines can also be adjusted for a dirty scanner. Personally I would just clean it, but there
may be a time where this procedure becomes useful (When the scanner starts to fail) so I am
including it here.
8.
Load a sheet of CLEAN bright white paper into the scanner
9.
Press the SETUP key on the front panel.
10.
Press the Right or Left ARROWS until "MAINTENANCE" appears.
11.
Press the START/ENTER key.
12.
The display will show "DRUM CLEAN?"
13.
Press the Right or Left ARROWS until "ADJUST SHADING" appears.
14.
Press the START/ENTER key.
15.
The white paper will feed and reset the scanner so it knows what a clean page looks like.
The best way to run test pages is simply to make a copy. Take a printed page with both text and graphics,
and run a few copies.
Other than the cartridge bay, the document feed rollers and scanner must also be cleaned. Although the
adjustment listed above will take care of dirty copies, this is by far a better way to go.
Lift up the top cover. There is a white roller attached to the lid. Rotate the right side of the roller until the
bushing allows the roller to be removed. Clean the roller with a soft lint free cloth and water. DO NOT use
any chemicals on this roller! Re-install the roller, lock the bushing in place.
In the center of the lid is the ADF separation pad. Clean the rubber with a good rubber cleaner.
The scanner glass is located at the base of the lid on the body of the machine. Clean it with a soft lint free
cloth. If stubborn dirt will not come off, dampen the cloth with water, and dry the glass. It is not recommended
that anything harsher than water be used on the glass. Be careful not to scratch the glass!
