Cleaning the ADF

When the copied or scanned images from the ADF are smeared or the originals do not feed in the ADF correctly, clean the ADF.

Important:

Never use alcohol or thinner to clean the printer. These chemicals can damage the printer.

  1. Open the ADF cover.

  2. Use a soft, moist cloth to clean the roller and the interior of the ADF.

    Important:
    • Using a dry cloth may damage the surface of the roller.

    • Use the ADF after the roller has dried.

  3. Close the ADF cover, and then open the document cover.

  4. Clean the part that is shown in the illustration.

    Important:
    • If the glass surface is stained with grease or some other hard-to-remove material, use a small amount of glass cleaner and a soft cloth to remove it. Wipe off all remaining liquid.

    • Do not press the glass surface too hard.

    • Be careful not to scratch or damage the surface of the glass. A damaged glass surface can decrease the scan quality.
