Tips for avoiding jams

If media repeatedly jams in the all-in-one, follow these tips to avoid the jams.

z

Make sure that the printhead latch is correctly engaged.

z

Make sure that nothing is blocking the paper path.

z

Do not overload the trays. Tray 1 holds up to 150 sheets of paper and tray 2 holds up to
250 sheets. Make sure that the media does not exceed the maximum stack height that is
indicated inside the tray.

z

Load media correctly. See

Loading the print media

for more information.

z

Make sure that the media width and length adjusters fit snugly but gently against the stack
of media, but do not wrinkle or bend the media.

z

Do not combine different media types and sizes in the same tray.

z

Always use media that meets specifications. See

Choosing the print media

for more

information.

z

Do not use media that is damaged, curled, crumpled, or wrinkled. Do not use media with
cutouts or perforations or media that is heavily textured or embossed.

z

Avoid media that is too thin, has a slick texture, or “stretches” easily. Such media does not
feed correctly through the all-in-one.

z

Do not add media to a tray while the all-in-one is printing or scanning.
