Clean the automatic document feeder and the glass plate in order that the scanner can scan the originals correctly and can detect the size of the originals.
You can use water or water with a mild cleaning agent to clean this. It is easy to use the cleaning cloth provided as a system accessory of the automatic document feeder. When the cleaning cloth becomes dirty, wash and rinse it, and then leave to dry.
Location of the automatic document feeder
WARNING
When you clean the machine, first turn OFF the main power switch, and disconnect the power cord. Failure to observe these steps can result in a fire or electrical shock.
Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet regularly, and clean the area around the base of the power plug's metal pins and the power outlet with a dry cloth to ensure that all dust and grime is removed. If the power cord is connected for a long period of time in a damp, dusty, or smoky location, dust can build up around the power plug and become damp. This can cause a short circuit and may result in a fire.
IMPORTANT
Do not dampen the cloth with too much water. This can damage prints or machine parts.
Do not use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other solvents for cleaning. This can damage plastic machine parts.
