Maintaining the Copy Module Note The Separation Pad and Pick Rollers must be replaced every 60,000 pages through the ADF. To check the "ADF Scans Since Last Maintenance" counter, print a Configuration Page from the printer's Information Menu. You must reset the maintenance counter in service mode after you replace the maintenance parts (see page 143). For removal and replacement procedures, see "Copy Module Maintenance Parts" on page 500. The procedures take approximately 15 minutes. Symptoms that indicate it is time to replace the maintenance parts include increasing mispicks and visible wear or polish on the surface of the Separation Pad or Pick Rollers. If highly abrasive papers or papers high in calcium carbonate content are used, replacement intervals may be shorter.
