TO CLEAN THE SENSORS
CLEANING AUTO-START INFRARED SENSORS
Paper detection sensors are designed for maintenance free operation. However, on rare occasions the sensors may become blocked by paper dust causing the motor to run
even if there is no paper present
(Note: two paper detection sensors are located in the center of the paper entry)
.
