TIPS FOR AVOIDING PAPER JAMS

By selecting the correct media types, most paper jams can be avoided.

When a paper jam occurs, follow the steps outlined on page 52.

Follow the procedures on page 32. Ensure that the adjustable guides

are positioned correctly.

Do not overload the tray. Ensure that the paper level is below the paper

capacity mark on the inside of the tray.

Do not remove paper from the tray while your machine is printing.

Flex, fan, and straighten paper before loading.

Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper.

Do not mix paper types in a tray.

Use only recommended print media. (See "Setting the paper size and

type" on page 33.)

Ensure that the recommended side of the print media is facing up in the

tray and manual feeder.

CLEARING PAPER JAMS

When a paper jam occurs, the warning message appears on the display

screen. Refer to the table below to locate and clear the paper jam.
