Troubleshooting

Difficulty

The document is jammed.

The scan quality is poor.

The machine pauses for about 3 seconds between each page when scanning.

Cause

 Paper dust has accumulated on the surface of the Pick-up Roller or

Separation Pad.

 There are foreign objects in the document feeder.

 Your document is not acceptable for the machine.

 A receipt is scanned without using the Receipt Carrier Sheet.

 Paper dust has accumulated on the surface of the Pick-up Roller or

Separation Pad.

 Paper dust has accumulated on the surface of the glass strips inside the machine.

 The resolution is too low.

The machine has entered motor save mode. If you scan continuously, the internal temperature of the machine may increase, causing the machine to enter motor save mode.

Suggestions

 Clean the Separation Pad and Pick-up Roller.

To clean the Separation pad, see Replace the

Separation Pad on page 175 to refer how to pull

the Separation Pad out from the machine, clean the rubber side of the Separation Pad with a soft lint-free cloth moistened with water, and then attach the Separation Pad in the machine. To

clean the Pick-up Roller, see Clean the Scanner on page 169.

 Remove any foreign objects or ripped paper from the document feeder.

 Make sure your document is acceptable for the

machine. See Acceptable Document on page 28.

 Scan the receipt using the Receipt Carrier

Sheet. See Loading a Receipt on page 37, and

Scan Receipts Using BR-Receipts (Windows ® )

on page 89 or Scan Receipts Using BR-

Receipts (Macintosh) on page 101.

 Clean the Separation Pad and Pick-up Roller.

To clean the Separation pad, see Replace the

Separation Pad on page 175 to refer how to pull

the Separation Pad out from the machine, clean the rubber side of the Separation Pad with a soft lint-free cloth moistened with water, and then attach the Separation Pad in the machine. To

clean the Pick-up Roller, see Clean the Scanner on page 169.

 Clean the glass strips inside the machine. See

Clean the Scanner on page 169.

 Increase the scanner resolution.

This is normal and you may continue to scan. If you scan continuously, the internal temperature of the machine may increase, causing the machine to enter motor save mode.

Bleed through is seen in the scan data.
