If the scanner does not pick up paper, try these solutions.

1.

Open the scanner and remove any jammed sheets of paper. Verify that no torn remnants of paper remain

inside the scanner.

2.

Verify that the humidity in the room is within specifications for this scanner and that paper is being stored

in unopened packages. Most reams of paper are sold in moisture-proof wrapping to keep paper dry.

3.

The rollers might be contaminated. Clean the rollers with a lint-free cloth dampened with warm water. Use

distilled water, if it is available.

CAUTION:

Do not spray water directly on to the scanner. Instead, spray water on the cloth or dab the cloth

in water and wring it out before cleaning the rollers.

The following image shows examples of the roller location for various scanners.
