The first copy through adf has line - Ricoh Aficio 2035 Copier

Clean ADF scan module

you must clean the glass (small one)

"Normally" that is a simple problem. If it copies clean when you lay your original on the glass......but when using the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) the copy has a black line then it is clearly something in the ADF scanner. Some machines use a strip of glass that is next to the large glass to scan originals when using the ADF. That strip of glass has to be clean top and bottom. Some models use a scanner in the actual ADF. Either way if it copies fine from the glass, the rest of the copier is eliminated from being the cause.
Is your machine under maintenence contract? Then I would keep calling them until they FIX it!

Are the copies solid black or black lines ? If there are black lines, try cleaning the **** glass under the ADF ( above the large glass ).

There are two scan modes when copies are made.When you make copies through ADF you originals go past small **** glass located to the left of the main exposure glass.Any small mark on this **** glass( correction fluid mark,ink mark,small scratch,dust particle and so on)will show as a line on your copy.So to get rid of these vertical lines on your copies you need to clean this small exposure glass.

Hi;

If you are only getting the lines when using the ADF , but not when placing the document on the glass then there is some type of debris on the scan glass.

This is a small strip of glass that is independent of the copy glass. This glass should be to the left or right of the copy glass. Just glean this well with alcohol or windex and try copying again from the ADF and see if the problem is gone.

Good Luck

try the drum, replace and make a copy

there is a dirt on the ADF (CIS contact image sensor) that reads your document, identify where the lines came from either from top or bottom then open your adf and clean the affected area. this will solve the problem.

Hi,

Over time the automatic document feeder (ADF) will get dirty, occasionally causing vertical black streaks or lines in scans and copies .

Manual cleaning of the ADF might be necessary. Follow the procedure below to manually clean the ADF .

You will need the following materials:

• Soft lint-free cloths
• Glass cleaner

if you look carefully on the left side of ADF ( top feeder ) there is an assembly which u can lift , there wud be a set of rollers if u lift that part there would be a glass strip . u are suppose to clean that strip .
While holding up the inside of the ADF, clean the glass in the location of the vertical streak with one of the cotton swabs. Try cleaning the glass first with a dry cotton swab. If that does not correct the problem, then moisten the swab with glass cleaner .
If the vertical lines or streaks still appear, go through the above cleaning process again, this time cleaning the entire surface of the ADF scanner glass.
and after this try the following steps as well .
CAUTION: Use only glass cleaner. Avoid abrasives, acetone, benzene, and carbon tetrachloride, all of which can damage the scanner glass.
