Do Not Clean Your Image Scanner This Way!!!

November 20th, 2007 by admin

My height of foolishness one fine day in 2002 was to clean my flatbed image scanner surface with a wet cloth! Stickler for cleanliness that I am, I tried cleaning it the best way possible. And guess what - the very next image I scanned had an obnoxious green line on it. And this just became bigger and bigger till I was scanning nothing but green goblin pictures through my scanner. This is an ardent plea to all image scanner owners out there - do not use damp cloths for cleaning your scanner surface. Just a dry tissue paper will do.
