Description
Learn how to clean the glass and white reference areas to remove vertical streaks on scanned images and sent faxes.
Solution
Precautions
Before cleaning, send or print any pending faxes or print outs.
Turn off and unplug the machine before cleaning.
Use only a soft dry cloth to clean. Paper towels, tissue paper, and other materials may scratch the machine.
Note: Do not use volatile liquids such as thinners, benzene, acetone, or any other chemical cleaner: they may cause a malfunction or damage the surface of the machine.
Cleaning
With a soft, clean, lint-free and dry cloth, wipe these areas:
The platen glass - A
The inner side of the document cover (white sheet) - B
The glass of the Auto Document Feeder (ADF ) - C
The white inner side of the ADF - D - gently.
Make sure not to leave any residue, especially on the glass surface.
