Streaks in image scanned by Canon DR-2580C Path-Through

I had an unfortunate incident where some pages with staples were fed through the scanner. As a result, the sensors must have been scratched/damaged, as images have darker lines in the scan direction (not completely black, just darkened).

How can this be repaired (if at all)?

The staples cannot reach the sensors. They could have scratched the glass above the sensors. Clean the glass with IsoPropyl alcohol. Try scanning a few images to find if the scratch marks are on the same place on all images. Once confirmed that the glass is scratched, you can change the glass. You need a technical expertise to change or call service staff.

Canon scanner whiting out one side of page
Hi, The Camera (CCD) would appear to be faulty. I service scanners and I have come accross this problem on this model twice. It was not worth replaceing the camera due to the low value of the scanner. Cost of part plus labour would be too high.

Canon DR-2580C scanner only scanning half the page. What could be the problem?
Select Auto for page size. The scanning software displays scanned image in many options, including 'fit'. Choose 'fit' so that you see complete image.

Scanner only scans top page although set on duplex setting.
Switch the little button on top of the scanner next to the 3 buttons. This switches between 1 page or multiple page.

Black at the bottom of scanned pages
There should not be a thick black line at the bottom, but could be from several things, light coming in from somewhere is my first guess, toner is almost out or the ribbon is getting stuck on the inside at that point. You may have to call Cannon and ask them.

Dr-2580C nolonger pulls one page at a time.
How old is the rubber roller, in terms of number of scans? It it had crossed 250,000 better change it. It wears out and no amount of cleaning can help. Ensure that the paper is not sticky. Stapled documnets are held together where the pis was, ensure they are free.

Canon DR 2580C Scanning issue
In Captureperfect, select page size as 'Scanners Maximum'. Select automatic paper size, check the output now. If you select bigger paper size and smaller paper, you will see lack output, outside the paper area.

Try and scan a white paper. If the output is black, then may be the LEDs are not glowing, likely the wire is loose. Actually it is not easily reacheable! Try duplex scanning to check if both scan modules are fine.

Blank or blurry left edge of scanned documents
Try scanning a full page (A3) at different levels of contrast and in the Automode also, in color and Mono. Check the output to see if it is software or hardware issue.

You must have 'checked' the multipage option in the scanning software. Try scanning first page only and store as say temp1 and later all pages as temp2. If the file size is different you can deduce that the scanner has scanned all pages! To view multipage files, you need a proper software.

Image problems
The lower scanner unit moves when doing the shading adjustment (scans the little white plate on the top and bottem scanners). Most common problem is a staple interfering with the lower scanner movement.
