5.6.Correcting a Paper Jam

Theý3DSHU MDP message is displayed on the message display when paper becomes stuck in the paper transport system, the paper feed timing is incorrect, or paper fails to feed at all. The jam can be corrected by removing the paper.

The printer goes off-line when theý3DSHU MDP message is displayed.

Compare the symbol on the front panel that is flashing to Figure 5.1 and take the appropriate action listed below:

Check the MP tray.

If the paper is stacked in the MP tray, remove the paper

by pulling it out. Open and close the printer's top cover

or the paper feed unit.

When the jammed paper has been removed, open and close the printer's top cover or the paper feed unit. Then the printer automatically warms up, goes on-line, and continues printing. Depending on the point at which the jam occurred, the printer may or may not print the jammed page.

If paper jams occur frequently, try using a different type of paper, replace with paper from another ream, turn the stack of paper over, or turn the paper the other way around. Read the information in Appendix B. Also, look for tiny pieces of paper that may have been torn off and overlooked when the jammed paper was removed.

If you cannot solve the problem by changing the paper, there may be a problem with the printer. Call a ser- vice person.
