Clean top of the scanner

Clean the outside of the scanner prior to disassembly to prevent contamination of internal parts.

Use only glass cleaner. Avoid abrasives, acetone, benzene, and carbon tetrachloride, all of which can damage the scanner glass. Avoid isopropyl alcohol because it can leave streaks on the glass.

Do not spray the glass cleaner directly on the glass. Do not allow the cleaner to seep between the glass and the plastic. If liquid gets between the glass and the plastic it could stain the calibration strip ( the white strip under the glass) and render your scanner useless. If the cleaner gets in the calibration strip area, the scanner must be sent to hp for repair.

5Apply glass cleaner to a soft lint-free cloth. Clean the plastic first.

6Apply the glass cleaner sparingly to a separate cloth and clean the glass.
