Maintaining the Sheet Feeder

4.1 General Maintenance

The Automatic Sheet Feeder is designed to operate reliably over a long period of time with minimal attention. Preventive maintenance is both necessary and easy to accomplish. You should regularly do the following:

Dust the sheet feeder, ﬁrst removing the feeder from the printer.

Clean all pick-up rollers (see diagram) with a lint-free cloth and platen

cleaner. (See the DEC Direct Catalogue for the appropriate cleaner). Clean the printer's platen.

Caution: Platen cleaner dissolves plastic. Do not use platen cleaner on the plastic parts of the sheet feeder.
