Cleaning the Document Feeder Rollers
If the document feeder rollers become soiled, smudges may appear on copies, faxes, or
scanned documents and paper jams may occur.
To ensure clean copies at all times, clean the document feeder roller about once a month.
Important • Do not use benzene, paint thinner, or other organic solvents. Doing so might damage paint or
coating on plastic parts.
• Cleaning the machine with an excessive amount of water may cause the machine to malfunction or
damage documents during copying, faxing, scanning, or printing.
1 Pull up the handle on the document feeder top
cover, and open the document feeder top cover
completely.
Note • When you fully open the cover, it enters a
fixed position. Open the cover gently.
2 While turning the rollers, wipe them with a soft cloth moistened with water.
Important • Do not use cleaning agents other than water or neutral detergent.
• Use a cloth firmly wrung to prevent water drops from falling into the machine. If water gets into the
machine, it may cause the machine to malfunction.
Note • If you cannot remove dirt easily, gently wipe the rollers with a soft cloth moistened with a small
amount of neutral detergent.
3 Close the document feeder left cover until it clicks into place, and confirm that there is no
space between the near or far side of the cover and the document feeder.
