If the document feed rollers in the ADF are contaminated with ink, toner particles or paper dust, documents and outputs get dirty and a paper jam may occur. Clean the document feed rollers and the document separating pad once a month to prevent these problems.

Do not use benzine, thinners, or alcohol. They may damage the plastic parts of the machine.
