Dust or dirt on the scanner glass, ADF lid backing, or ADF frame can slow down performance, degrade the quality of scans, and affect the accuracy of special features such as fitting copies to a certain page size.

Clean the scanner glass

To clean the scanner glass

1.Turn off the device.

2.Lift the ADF.

3.Clean the glass by using a soft, lint-free cloth that has been sprayed with a mild glass cleaner. Dry the glass with a dry, soft, lint-free cloth.

CAUTION: Use only glass cleaner to clean the scanner glass. Avoid cleaners that contain 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.

CAUTION: Do not spray the glass cleaner directly on the glass. If too much glass cleaner is applied, the cleaner could leak under the glass and damage the scanner.

4.Close the ADF, and turn on the device.

Clean the automatic document feeder (ADF)

The ADF requires periodic cleaning depending on the amount of use and the type of paper that is fed through it. If you use the ADF several times per week, monthly cleaning is recommended. Set up a cleaning routine that is appropriate for the device.

If streaks exist on scanned documents, cleaning the ADF frame might solve the problem.
