Cleaning the Automatic Document Feeder
You may need to clean the ADF feed mechanism if your 
documents do not feed easily into the ADF, or several feed in at the 
same time.
To clean the ADF:
1. Wet a soft cloth with some Isopropyl rubbing alcohol (95%).
2. Press the ADF cover release on the top right of the scanner 
body to open the Automatic Document Feeder cover.
3. Wipe the feed roller from side to side. Rotate the roller to clean 
its entire surface.
4. Wipe the ADF pad from top to bottom. Be careful not to snag 
the cloth on the springs on either side of the pad.
5. Close the cover when you’re finished.
NOTE: Please be careful when cleaning the roller. The roller is 
designed to rotate in one direction only. As you’re cleaning the 
roller, make sure it rotates easily, and continue rotating it in that 
direction while wiping it clean. Do NOT force the roller to rotate 
in the opposite direction. Forcing the roller to rotate will damage 
it, and may cause the scanner to feed pages incorrectly.
