Maintenance
To protect your scanner and ensure optimum performance, follow the instructions in these
sections:
■ Transporting the scanner
■ Transporting the transparency unit
■ Cleaning the scanner
Transporting the Scanner
Always secure the carriage when you transport the scanner a long distance or store it for an
extended time.
1. Make sure the transportation lock
on the back of the scanner is in the UNLOCK
position.
2. If you’re using a transparency unit or automatic
document feeder, remove it and replace the
scanner cover.
3. Turn on the scanner and wait until the carriage
moves to the home position, as shown. Then
turn off the scanner.
Note: If the carriage doesn’t automatically return
to the home position, slowly raise the front of the
scanner and let the carriage slide to the home
position. The carriage won’t move automatically to the home position if you have a
transparency unit installed; you must remove the transparency unit first.
