2. Select the Paper Feed Roller of the Auto Sheet Feeder or Cassette by pressing

the Paper Feed Switch on the printer.

3. Hold down the RESUME/CANCEL button and release after the POWER lamp

flashes green three times.
The Paper Feed Roller rotates as it cleans.

4. Repeat step 3 twice.
5. Load three or more sheets of Letter-sized plain paper lengthways in the Auto

Sheet Feeder or Cassette selected in step 2.

6. Hold down the RESUME/CANCEL button and release after the POWER lamp

flashes green three times.
Paper is fed and output.

If repeating this procedure three times or more does not solve the problem,
contact the Customer Care Center.

Paper is loaded
incorrectly

Load in the portrait orientation regardless of the print direction of the Auto Sheet
Feeder or Cassette.
Ensure that paper is loaded correctly. Slide the paper guides against the paper
stack. See
