This section provides instructions for keeping your HP PSC in top working condition. Perform these maintenance procedures as necessary.

clean the glass

Dirty glass, from fingerprints, smudges, hair, and so on, slows down performance and affects the accuracy of features such as Fit to Page and Copy.

1Turn off the unit, unplug the power cord, and raise the lid.

2Clean the glass with a soft cloth or sponge slightly moistened with a nonabrasive glass cleaner.

Caution! Do not use abrasives, acetone, benzene, or carbon tetrachloride on the glass; these can damage it. Do not place liquids directly on the glass. They may seep under it and damage the unit.

3Dry the glass with a chamois or cellulose sponge to prevent spotting.

clean the lid backing

Minor debris can accumulate on the white document-backing located underneath the unit’s lid.

1Turn off the unit, unplug the power cord, and raise the lid.

2Clean the white document-backing with a soft cloth or sponge slightly moistened with a mild soap and warm water.

3Wash the backing gently to loosen debris; do not scrub the backing.

4Dry the backing with a chamois or soft cloth.

Caution! Do not use paper-based wipes as these may scratch the backing.

5If this does not clean the backing well enough, repeat the previous steps using isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol, and wipe the backing thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any residual alcohol.
