Yes you can. Just be careful not to force any movement of the scanner lamp. Be gentle. Otherwise you have nothing to fear.

SOURCE: How do I remove the glass plate to clean it?

On ones like your model, you lift the cover off of the keyboard assembly, and either remove tape covers over the screws or press a lever and slide the keyboard toward the front. After that unplug the ribbon cable and then there are torx screws all around holding the glass. They usually snap in the front and have screws to remove at the rear.Don't lose the tiny white rollers on the scan bar...

How do you clean the underside of hp5590 glass?

Detach the ADF assembly. Remove the 4 case screws from the scanner bottom. The case has a notch at the back that has to be unclipped to separate the top and bottom. Clean the glass underside repeatedly, I use methylated spirits on soft toilet roll. Check in the glare of the scanner light, and reassemble.

I want to clean the underside scanning glass of the HP C4180 scanner/printer because when I scann, the top is clean, but the scaned pictures look like they have little specks of dust all over the scanned...

It takes several steps to remove the glass carrier for cleaning, but it's not really difficult. You'll need a T10 Torx screwdriver, eyeglasses cleaner or similar, and a lint-free microfiber cloth.

1) Remove usb and power cables. Flip the front covers open (revealing the cartridge-insertion area). Remove 2 screws from the right-side panel, and remove that panel.

2) Open the photo-paper holder on the left side, depress plastic tabs on its top and bottom so it can swing out 90 degrees, and remove it.

3) Remove 2 screws from the left-side panel, and remove the panel. This exposes the gears of the paper-handling mechanism; take care not to move the gears. Disconnect the three ribbon cables connected the bottom circuit board.

4) Flip up the LCD, exposing a screw. (Note that this one is shorter than all of the others.) Remove the screw. Lift the scanner lid and remove two screws just behind the rear of the glass. Close the cover. Lift the rear of the glass carrier, then slide it back slightly to remove it. Take care not to move the scanner bar that remains in the main body of the machine.

5) Keeping the lid shut, flip the glass carrier over over. Spray cleaner on the glass and wipe; repeat as needed. I use a bright light at a low angle to check for particles on the glass.

To reassemble, just reverse the steps. Finish by cleaning the top of the glass.

HP 6110 scanner glass is cloudy

Here is how, but it seems a lot of work.

- Remove all the torx-screws
- Remove the little glass on the left side
- Remove the Control Panel Cover (lifted it a little with a screwdriver and released two latches)
- Remove the Control Panel itself (another two latches&move to the left)
- The whole top of the 6110 is attached to the bottom with 4 latches. I remove that, turn it around and clean the glass.

Note: The cables between 6110-bottom and control panel/feeding unit are long enough to set those things aside.

Underside of scanner bed needs cleaned

Start by taking the back cover off. Then the 2 side covers, being careful not to break the speaker wires.
There will be 2 screws holding the sanner into the machine, you need to remove them. Carefully disconnect the ribbon cable, remove the ground screw, and all the connectors to the scanner and document feeder. It will have to be popped backward to unlatch it from the frame.
Remove the document feeder, take notice how you remove the wires so you can route them properly when reassemling.
Remove the screws holding the control consol and the scanner together.
There also will be some plastic tabs holding it snapped together. Seperate the glass frame from the remainder of the scanner.
disasseble the scanner head carefully being cautious not to break the lamps so you can clean the mirrors. Then clean the underside of the glass.
Then in reerse order, taking your time, reasseble the machine. Make sure to route the wires properly and carefully.
A bit time consuming, but the scanner must be removed and disassembled to clean it.
