Clean the paper path
If scanned images have streaks or scratches, use an HP paper path cleaning cloth to clean the paper
path.

To clean the paper path, follow these steps:
1. Open the sealed HP paper path cleaning cloth container, starting at the notch. Take care not to
tear the cleaning cloth.
2. Remove the cleaning cloth and unfold it.
3. Place the unfolded cloth into the document feeder.
4. Windows: Launch the HP Scanner Tools Utility, and then click Maintenance.
5. Feed the cloth through the scanner.
Windows: Under Clean Paper Path, click Clean to feed the cloth through the scanner.
Mac: Press the Scan (
) button to feed the cloth through the scanner.
NOTE: In addition to feeding the cloth through the scanner, the Mac will perform the scan
shortcut assigned to the scan button.
CAUTION: Wait two minutes for the components to dry before proceeding to the next step.
6. Place up to five pages of printed paper in the scanner. Scan and view the results.
