  1. Open the scanner's main cover.
  2. Gently remove any jammed paper or debris.
  3. Clean the pickup rollers with a lint-free cloth.
  4. Close the unit securely to trigger the sensor reset.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Replace rollers every 100k cycles. Clean the sensors using compressed air to remove dust build-up.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the error persists after cleaning and no paper is jammed, the internal drive belt or motor may be damaged.
