care and maintenance
Occasional cleaning of your scanner helps ensure optimal performance. The
amount of care necessary depends upon several factors, including the amount of
use and the environment. You should perform routine cleaning as necessary.
Note: Avoid placing items with sharp edges in the scanner. Doing so can
damage the scanner. Before placing an item on the scanner glass, make
sure the item is free of wet glue, correction fluid, or other substances that can
be transferred to the glass.
clean the scanner glass
Note: Dust and fingerprints affect scanning quality only on the scanning
side (dark frame) of the scanner.
1 Disconnect the combination USB and power cable from the scanner.
2 Clean the glass using a soft, lint-free cloth sprayed with a mild glass
cleaner.
Caution! Use only glass cleaner. Avoid 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.
Do not spray the glass cleaner directly on the glass. If too much
glass cleaner is applied, the cleaner could run to the edges and
damage the scanner.
3 Dry the scanner glass using a dry, soft, lint-free cloth.
4 When finished, reconnect the combination USB and power cable to the
scanner.
clean the transparent materials adapter
If you have a transparent materials adapter for scanning slides and negatives,
clean the window in the door and the light window using a slightly-damp, soft,
lint-free cloth.
store the scanner
To prevent scratches on the scanning side of the scanner, store the scanner in the
holder provided.
Tip: When not in use, use the scanner to display a favorite photo.
