Cleaning the Inside of the Scanner (ADF) with Cleaning Paper
The inside of the ADF can be cleaned with a sheet of Cleaning Paper moistened with Cleaner F1.
As the scanner continues to feed the documents, paper dust will accumulate inside the ADF and it may cause
scanning errors. Cleaning should be performed approximately every 5,000 sheets scanned. Note that this guideline
varies depending on the types of documents you scan. For instance, it may be necessary to clean the scanner more
frequently when you scan documents on which the toner is not sufficiently fused.
ATTENTION
● Do not use water or mild detergent to clean the ADF.
● It may take a long time to dry if an excessive amount of Cleaner F1 is used. Use only a small amount.
1 Turn on the scanner.
