2. Removing and Attaching the Rollers
Follow the relevant procedure to remove and attach the pickup roller, feed
rollers 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 a exchange
roller kit, and replace the pickup roller, feed rollers and the retard roller.
CAUTION
• Turn ON the power to the scanner to remove or attach the pickup
roller. Be careful when working on the scanner when the power
is ON.
• Do not use excessive force when removing or attaching the
rollers. Doing so may damage them.
Roller Replacement Cycle
When the rollers being used have fed more than 250,000 pages, a roller
replacement message is displayed on the computer. Buy a roller replacement
kit and change the pickup roller, feed rollers 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. 109.)
• Contact your local authrized Canon dealer or service representative for
information about the exchange roller kit (pickup roller, feed rollers and
retard roller).
