Clearing Paper Jams
To clear a paper jam, follow these steps:
1. Press the Operate button to turn off the printer.
2. If a single-sheet of paper is stuck on the paper guide, gently
remove it.
3. Remove the printer cover. If you are loading continuous
paper from the rear slot, remove the paper guide.
4. If continuous paper is jammed in the printer, tear off the
fresh supply at the perforation nearest the paper entry slot.
5. Turn the knob on the right side of the printer away from
you to eject the paper in the printer. Remove any remaining
pieces of paper.
Caution:
Use the knob on the right side of the printer only to clear
paper jams when the printer is off. Otherwise, you may
damage the printer or lose the top-of-form or tear-off
position.
6. Replace the printer cover, and the paper guide if necessary.
Then close the paper guide cover.
7. Press the Operate button to turn on the printer. Make sure
the Paper Out and Pause lights are off.
Your Printer’s Default Settings
The printer’s default settings control many printer functions.
While you can often set these functions through your software
or printer driver, you may sometimes need to change a default
setting from the printer’s control panel using the default-
setting mode.
The following table lists the default settings (highlighted in bold
text) and the options you can select in the default-setting mode.
To change the default settings, see the next section, “Changing
