Cleaning the Scanner

Routinely cleaning the exit window is required. A dirty window may affect scanning accuracy. Do not allow any abrasive material to touch the window.
  1. Dampen a soft cloth with isopropyl alcohol or use pre-moistened alcohol wipes.
  2. Gently wipe all surfaces, including the front, back, sides, top, and bottom. Never apply liquid directly to the scanner. Be careful not to let liquid pool around the scanner window, trigger, cable connector or any other area on the device.
  3. Be sure to clean the trigger and in between the trigger and the housing (use a cotton-tipped applicator to reach tight or inaccessible areas).
  4. Do not spray water or other cleaning liquids directly into the exit window.
  5. Wipe the scanner exit window with a lens tissue or other material suitable for cleaning optical material such as eyeglasses.
  6. Immediately dry the scanner window after cleaning with a soft, non-abrasive cloth to prevent streaking.
  7. Allow the unit to air dry before use.
  8. Scanner connectors:
    1. Dip the cotton portion of a cotton-tipped applicator in isopropyl alcohol.
    2. Rub the cotton portion of the cotton-tipped applicator back and forth across the connector on the Zebra scanner at least three times, making sure to leave no cotton residue.
    3. Use the cotton-tipped applicator dipped in alcohol to remove grease and dirt near the connector area.
    4. Use a dry cotton-tipped applicator and rub the cotton portion back and forth across the connectors at least three times. Do not leave any cotton residue on the connectors.
