However, if you notice that your images contain cyan, magenta, or yel-
low lines in the direction parallel with the scan movement, then your
CCD sensor may be in need of cleaning. In this case, use the following
procedure:
1. With your system fully assembled and with the software running,
select the Camera ➜ Maintenance ➜ Cleaning Position menu.
2. With an aerosol containing compressed air, spray the CCD sensor
surface to remove any abrasive dust. Do not use a high pressure com-
pressed air source. This is likely to damage the CCD beyond repair.
3. Lightly moisten a clean piece of standard lens cleaning paper with
some isopropyl alcohol.
4. Rub the CCD sensor surface with the moistened lens cleaning paper.
Be careful not to get any alcohol anywhere else inside the camera
back. After the alcohol evaporates, inspect the CCD for dust. Repeat
if necessary.
5. Use one pump of PhotoPhase anti-static spray (included with your
camera back) to lightly moisten a new, clean piece of lens paper.
Never spray the fluid directly into your camera back.
6. Gently rub the CCD sensor surface with the moistened lens cleaning
paper. The purpose of this step is to apply a very light coating to pre-
vent static electricity from building up on the CCD surface. Do not
apply too much of the anti-static solution.
7. When you have finished cleaning the CCD, click on the It’s Clean
button to return the CCD to its parked position.
8. Always store your camera back with the dust cover slid all the way
down over the scan area, so that the CCD sensor and other internal
components are protected from dirt and damage.
