Checking the Sheet Counter
The status on each consumable part can be viewed to determine when to replace or clean the consumables.
When a consumable needs to be replaced or cleaned soon, the background color of the counter for the consumable changes. The background color of counters change at the following times:
- Brake roller/pick roller counters
The background color of the counters turns light yellow when the sheet count reaches 95% of the value that is specified in [Life Counter Alarm Setting] of the Software Operation Panel. The background color of the counters turns yellow when the sheet count reaches 100%.
- Sheet counter after cleaning
The background color of the counter turns yellow when the sheet count after cleaning reaches the value that is specified in [Cleaning Cycle] of the Software Operation Panel.
- Remaining ink counter
The background color of the counter turns yellow when the amount of remaining ink reaches below 33% (only displayed when the imprinter is installed).
For details about [Life Counter Alarm Setting] and [Cleaning Cycle] of the Software Operation Panel, refer to the Operator's Guide.
The following shows the suggested replacement cycles for consumables when using A4/Letter (80g/m2 (20 lb)) wood-free paper or wood-containing paper. Actual cycles vary depending on the type of documents scanned and how often the scanner is used and cleaned.
