Changing the printer separation pad
Note
Before you change the separation pad, clean the pickup roller.
See
Cleaning the pickup roller for instructions.
If the paper input tray feeds more than one page at a time, you might need
to change the printer separation pad. Recurring feed problems indicate
that the printer separation pad is worn. See
Accessories and ordering
information to order a new printer separation pad.
1 Unplug the power cord from the printer, and allow the printer to cool.
2 Remove the paper input tray.
3 Find the blue separation pad.
4 To pry the separation pad up from the spring-loaded base, insert a
flat-edged screwdriver in the slot under the separation pad, and twist
until the tabs are free.
5 With one hand, reach in through the opening, and push the
spring-loaded base down (A). With the other hand, pull the separation
pad up (B).
6 With one hand, position the new separation pad in the slot of the
previous separation pad (A). With the other hand, reach through the
paper input tray opening, and push the spring-loaded base down (B).
Note
The tab on the right is larger to help you position it correctly.
