ADF Scanner Care


Over time and use, you may notice some minor changes in your scanner behavior. Pages sticking together or jamming in the scanner are indications it’s time to replace the feed pad and roller. Luckily, these items are simple to install and replace.

If you notice a decline in image quality, it’s time to clean and re-calibrate your scanner. Scanner calibration is recommended once every three months. Generally, the best indicator of a needed cleaning is the appearance of any black streaks, or if your auto-crop/auto-size functions stop working on scans.

Calibration

Any scanner ending with –IX comes pre-calibrated from the factory. No initial calibration is required. However, calibration may be needed if image quality declines.
1. Click the Start button or Windows icon on the lower left side of the computer screen
2. Select the folder corresponding to the name listed on the front of your scanner
3. Click Calibration Wizard
4. Follow the on screen prompts
