Inside the scanner

Clean the unit at least once a week or when 20,000 sheets have been scanned, whichever comes first.

frequently. (Refer to pages 3339.)
Clean the ADF glass, reference plate when black or white lines appear on the scanned images.
(Refer to page 37.)
Clean the flatbed glass and document cover detector. (Refer to page 40.)
If the documents you scan are dirty, then the scanner components will also become dirty.
To maintain proper scanning, clean the scanner components frequently.
When scanning with the flatbed and black dots or white patches occurs, open the document cover, and clean
the flatbed glass and flatbed sheet using the accessory roller cleaning paper.
