This chapter describes the required cleaning and maintenance procedures for
the Kodak i3200/i3400 Scanner. The frequency of these procedures will vary
with different scanning environments, paper types and image processing
requirements. High volumes of scanning will demand more frequent cleaning
of the scanner and more frequent replacement of consumables. Years of
Kodak’s production scanning experience proves that properly cleaning and
maintaining your scanner will result in scanning more paper in less time with
less issues. A properly maintained Kodak i3200/i3400 Scanner will provide
years of trouble-free operation.
Scanner consumables (tires, pre-separation pads, etc.) and cleaning supplies
are available from resellers, web merchants and from the Kodak on-line store
(http:/scannerstore.kodak.com). Consumables are sold in kits of various sizes.
The kits contain the proper mix of tires, rollers, and pre-separation pads so you
can easily replace them at the recommended rate. For example, only replacing
the tires and never replacing the separation roller will eventually minimize
scanner performance. Replacing the consumables at the recommended
frequency will ensure the best performance.
