Replacement
procedures Replacement procedures should be performed on an as-needed basis.
Components that need periodic replacement include the exposure
lamps and imaging guides.
Changing the lamps The exposure system consists of two special, long- lif e fluorescent
lamps. The lamps slide in and out of the scanner for easy lamp
replacement:
• Always replace both lamps at the same time. If both lamps are not
replaced, exposures may not be acceptable.
• Use recommended lamps only. Other lamps may result in
unacceptable image quality.
Change the lamps every 500 hours, when required for error recovery, or
when image quality is poor.
WARNING:

Make sure the lamps are cool before attempting to

remove them from the lamp socket holder.

To change the lamps:
1. Turn the power switch off.
2. Open the side access door.
3. Release the rear lamp cable connector from the scanner electrical
system.
