Problems with the paper
feed

The paper is not fed in.

1. Check that the display shows the correct sheet feeder, if necessary select

the correct sheet feeder (single sheet or fanfold) with the key Park. See
Part I,

Changing the paper type.

2. Check that the Paper Type Selection Lever position is correct.

3. Make sure that the paper guide is correctly adjusted at the side.

4. When using single sheets, push the paper fully into the paper feed.

Switching from fanfold paper to single sheets causes the fanfold paper to
assume the park position.

5. Check that the fanfold paper is in the park position when you insert a

single sheet. This means the fanfold paper should not be loaded
(pulled in). To check this, raise the guide of the single sheet feeder.

If necessary, drive the remaining paper manually to the park position with
