Regular Maintenance 57
Removing and Attaching the Rollers
Follow the relevant procedure to remove and attach the feed roller and retard
roller when you clean or replace them.
IMPORTANT
Feed rollers are consumable parts. When the rollers start to wear out, paper
jams and misfeeds may occur more often. When this happens, buy an
exchange roller kit, and replace the feed roller and the retard roller.
CAUTION
Do not use excessive force when removing or attaching the
rollers. Doing so may damage them.
Roller Replacement Cycle
When the number of pages scanned exceeds 30,000, a roller replacement
message will appear when the computer is started. Buy an exchange roller kit,
and replace the feed roller and the retard roller.
IMPORTANT
• If misfeeds happen often, check the rollers for wear, and replace them if
necessary before the message is displayed.
• Be sure to reset the counter after replacing the rollers. (See “Resetting the
Counter,” on p. 58.)
• Contact your local authrized Canon dealer or service representative for
information about the exchange roller kit (feed roller and retard roller).
