repaired, or cleaned. Repeated jams may also happen if you’re using
unsupported print media.

Several
sheets go
through the
printer
together.

The front edges of the
media are not even.

Remove the moist media and replace it with
new, dry media.

tricity is present.

Do not fan transparency media.

again.

jams.

The wrong media is
being used.

Use only supported media. Refer to the
“Media Types” on page 35.

Plain paper and thick stock up to 28 lb bond
(105 g/m²) can be autoduplexed if the optional
duplex unit is installed. For heavier weights,
manual duplexing is required. To

manually

duplex, remove the media, flip it over, and
reload it.

Make sure that you have not mixed media
types in your media tray.

Do not duplex envelopes, glossy stock, labels,
thick stock, transfer media, or transparencies.

Media may still be
jammed.

Check for media stuck in the paper guides in
the duplex unit’s top cover, and the media sup-
ply area on the lower side of the printer.

If you removed jammed media from near the
OPC belt cartridge, reset the OPC belt car-
tridge’s locking levers.
