Daily Maintenance
Replacing Consumable Parts 2 Raise the OPEN lever, and open the upper unit.
The feed roller and retard roller are consumable parts.
The feed roller and retard roller wear with scanning. If the feed roller
and retard roller are worn, documents may not feed correctly and
paper jams and double feeds may occur.
When more than 200,000 pages have been fed (total number of pages
fed by the scanner), a message prompting you to replace the rollers is
displayed when the computer is started.

Problem 10 All of the placed documents have been scanned,
but the scanned image does not appear on the
application.
Solutions When [Panel-Feeding] or [Automatic Feeding] is
selected as the feeding method on the scanner driver's
setting screen, a scanning operation will not continue
after all of the documents are fed, as the scanner
awaits additional documents to be fed. You can finish
the operation and send the scanned images to the
application by pressing the Stop button on the
operating panel.
49
When a paper jam or double feed occurs during scanning, use the
following procedures to clear them.
CAUTION
Be careful when removing jammed paper. take care not to cut your
hand on the edges of the paper.
50
IMPORTANT
Make sure to pull the document out carefully, without applying too
much force. If the jammed paper tears while you are pulling it out,
make sure to remove any remaining pieces from inside the
scanner.
After removing the jammed paper, check to see if the last page
was scanned correctly, and then continue scanning.
Hint
When the [Rapid recovery system] check box is enabled in the
scanner driver settings screen, you can resume a scanning operation
even if it is interrupted by a paper jam by removing the document and
resuming from the document that was being fed when the interruption
occurred.
As the image of the document that was being fed at the time of the
interruption may not be saved in such cases, be sure to verify the last
scanned image before resuming the operation.
