Cleaning the scanning glass
and rollers
Any dirt on the scanning glass and
rollers will degrade the quality of
transmitted documents and copies.
Clean these frequently as explained
below.
♦ If the document does not feed or
double-feeds occur, use a cloth
moistened with water to wipe the
rollers.
1 Open the
cover.
2 Rotate the lever so that it points
straight up (➊) and pull it up (➋).
3 Pull the white roller out to the right.
Wipe the scanning glass, rollers,
and rubber sheet with a clean cloth
or swab.
• Do not wipe off the grease on the
ends of the white roller.
• Make sure that all dirt and stains
(such as correcting fluid) are
removed. Dirt and stains will cause
vertical lines on transmitted images
and copies.
• If the scanning glass is difficult to
clean, try moistening the cloth with
isopropyl alcohol or denatured
alcohol. Take care that no alcohol
gets on the rollers.
• Do not press down on the two front
rollers.
• Use a cloth moistened with alcohol
to wipe off any splattered ink on the
inside of the compartment or the
underside of the cover. (Do not wipe
the rollers or rubber sheet with the
alcohol-moistened cloth.)
4 Replace the white roller, inserting
the left end first. Push the lever
down and rotate it back down.
