You remove the panel that holds the control buttons by putting a small flat head screwdriver under the both outside edges (held by two small pins). Be carefull the ribbon cable does not unplug. After removing the two screws that are under the back hindge slots, the whole top pivots up and off of pins at the front. You feed the panel thru the hole left when you removed it. This frees up the top and the glass on both sides can be cleaned. Hold the glass up to a strong light to be sure it is clean before putting everything back in reverse order

Yes, but it is not a simple process.
Typically these are sealed and rarely need the bottom part of the glass cleaned. However seems I always get that rare few. :)

You must remove the mounting fasteners. Be careful and make note which positions the fasteners were removed. Each model has different locations. You may even have to pull up a label to reach a few of these. Hidden and tucked away not for the novice.
Try to remove ONLY the ones needed holding the glass in place.

Once you have the glass removed, use canned air or something to blow out the case. Clean glass and reverse the process.
Never EVER spray anything wet inside the case.

Be warned, it is very easy to S-t-r-i-p out a mounting point as you are working with plastic parts. Labels may not lay perfectly flat once you have pulled them up to remove a fastener. Little glue helps here for stubborn spots. Use light weight glues like Elmers.
You do not want the glue that holds like steel. You may have to dive in there again in the future. :)

Good luck!

The lines on a scanned document are typicaly caused by dirt on the scanning glass. To clean it use the following steps.

1. Unplug unit.
2. Open the fron access door from the top.
3. Clean both top and bottom **** glass that run the width of the scanner.

The glass can be cleaned with a lint free cloth and a mild glass cleaner.
