Cleaning Materials

ATTENTION

In order to use the cleaning materials safely and correctly, read the precautions on each product thoroughly.

Do not use aerosol spray or spray that contains alcohol. Paper dust blown up by strong air from the spray

may enter inside the scanner which may cause the scanner to fail or malfunction.

Also note that sparks generated by static electricity may cause a fire.

The inside of the ADF becomes very hot when the scanner is being used. Before you start cleaning the inside

of the ADF, make sure to turn off the power, unplug the power cable and wait for at least 15 minutes for the

inside of the ADF to cool down.

For more Information about the cleaning materials, contact the distributor/dealer where you purchased this product.

Or, make an Inquiry by referring to the contact Information at the Contact for Inquiries section In Safety Precautions

bundled with this product.

Cleaning the Inside of the Scanner

Clean the inside of the ScanSnap regularly.

Scanning repeatedly accumulates dust and paper dust inside the ScanSnap, and this may result in an error during a scan.

As a guideline, the inside of the ScanSnap should be cleaned every 1,000 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.

Notice

-The bottom part of the ScanSnap may become hot when the ScanSnap is being used but this does not affect

ScanSnap operation or cause any physical harm. Be careful not to drop the ScanSnap when carrying it.

-Do not use water or mild detergent to clean the inside of the ScanSnap.

-It may take a long time for Cleaner F1 to dry if an excessive amount is used. Moisten the cloth with a moderate

quantity.

Wipe off the cleaner completely to leave no residue on the cleaned parts.

Cleaning the Outside of the Scanner

Scanner

The scanner including the ADF paper chute (feeder) and the stacker should be cleaned with either a piece of dry

cloth, a cloth moistened with Cleaner F1/mild detergent, or a sheet of Cleaning Wipe.

Touch screen

To avoid the surface of the touch screen becoming dirty, clean it regularly by gently wiping dirt and dust off with

a soft, dry cloth.

Clean the touch screen with care. Do not rub or tap the surface with hard objects as doing so may damage the

surface.

ATTENTION

To avoid deformation and discoloration, never use paint thinner or any other organic solvents.

amount. Wipe off the cleaner completely to leave no residue on the cleaned parts.

ATTENTION

Do not wipe the touch screen with a damp cloth.

Dust on the surface may become stuck between the touch screen and the scanner, causing the touch screen to

malfunction.

Replacing the Consumables

This section explains how to replace the consumables for the scanner.

Consumables and Replacement Cycles

*1: The suggested replacement cycles are guidelines for using A4 (80 g/㎡[20 lb.]) wood-free paper, as these

cycles vary depending on the type of documents scanned.

Consumables need to be replaced periodically. It is recommended that you keep a stock of new consumables and

replace them before it reaches the end of the consumable life. Also, the scanner records the number of sheets scanned

for each consumable (brake roller and pick roller), which allows you to determine when to replace the consumables.

The inside of the ADF becomes very hot when the scanner is being used.

Before you replace the consumables, make sure to turn off the power, unplug the power cable and wait for at least

15 minutes for the inside of the ADF to cool down.

Before replacing the consumables, check the status of each consumable in the following procedure.

(1) Tap in the home screen on the touch panel of the ScanSnap to display the [Settings] screen.

(2) Tap to display the [Maintenance] screen.

(3) Tap [Check consumable status] to display the [Check consumable status] window.

(4) Check the value for [Current Count / Replacement Cycle].

Note that the suggested replacement cycles are guidelines for using A4 (80 g/m2[20 lb.]) wood-free or wood-containing

paper, as these cycles vary depending on the type of documents scanned and how often the scanner is used and

cleaned.

For information on purchasing the consumables, contact the distributor/dealer where you purchased this product. Or,

make an inquiry by referring to the contact information at the Contact for Inquiries section in Safety Precautions

bundled with this product.
