For details on how to buy cleaning tool, please contact the Fujitsu scanner dealer where you purchased your scanner.
Do not use aerosol sprays near the scanner.
Do not use any aerosol sprays or alcohol based sprays to clean the ScanSnap.
Dust blown up by strong air from the spray may enter inside of the ScanSnap.
This may cause the ScanSnap to fail, malfunction or scanning errors. Sparks, caused by static electricity,
generated when blowing off dust and dirt from the outside of the scanner may cause a fire.
[Cleaning the Inside of the Scanner]
Clean inside of the ScanSnap with a cloth moistened with Cleaner F1.
In an alternating succession of scanning documents, the accumulated paper-powder and dust inside the ScanSnap causes
a scanner error.
As a guideline, clean the inside of the ScanSnap every 1,000 scans.
Note that this guideline varies according to the type of the documents you are scanning.
For example, the inside of the ScanSnap must be cleaned more frequently when scanning documents with loose toner.
Clean the inside of the ScanSnap according to the following procedure.
The scan glass surface inside the ADF becomes hot during ScanSnap operation. Before you start to clean the inside of the ScanSnap, disconnect the AC adapter and power cable from the AC outlet and wait at least 15 minutes to let the ScanSnap cool down.
- Do not use water or neutral detergent to clean the inside of the ScanSnap.
- It may take a long time before the cleaner vaporizes if a large quantity is used. When cleaning the ScanSnap parts, dampen a cloth with modest quantities of the cleaner. In addition, wipe off the cleaner completely with a soft lint-free cloth to leave no residue on the surface of the cleaned parts.
Clean the following locations with a cloth moistened with Cleaner F1.
