Improve scan image quality ● Check the scanner glass for dirt and smudges ● Check the scan/send settings from the product control panel ● Clean the pickup rollers and separation pad in the document feeder Try these few simple steps first: ● Use the flatbed scanner rather than the document feeder. ● Use high-quality originals. ● When using the document feeder, load the original document into the feeder correctly, using the paper guides, to avoid unclear or skewed images. If the problem still exists, try these additional solutions. If they do not fix the problem, see "Improve print quality" for further solutions. Check the scanner glass for dirt and smudges Over time, specks of debris might collect on the scanner glass and white plastic backing, which can affect performance. Use the following procedure to clean the scanner if the printed pages have streaks, unwanted lines, black dots, poor print quality, or unclear text. 1. Press the power button to turn the product off, and then disconnect the power cable from the electrical outlet. 140 Chapter 9 Solve general problems ENWW
