Common causes

  • 1Dust buildup: Paper particles on sensors.
  • 2Worn rollers: Lack of grip causes feed failure.
  • 3Document weight: Glued or extremely thin stock issues.
  • 4Skewing: Loose guide rails.

Solutions

Diagnosis

E-2004 is triggered when the exit or entry sensor loses track of the paper path. Check if the feed is skewed or if the printer has stopped mid-scan.

Troubleshooting steps

  1. Open the scanner cover and remove all pages.
  2. Clean all rubber rollers with approved F1 cleaner.
  3. Inspect optical sensors for stray lint or debris.
  4. Restart the PaperStream software and retest.

Maintenance

Routine paper-path cleaning is critical. Avoid harsh chemicals that degrade rubber, as they cause permanent slipping of the feed rollers.

When to call a technician

If cleaning fails, the roller friction might be too low or an internal sensor has failed, requiring a professional visit.
