How to clear paper jams

4Lift the flap at the front of the printer, and remove any jams beneath the flap.

5Open the rear exit, and remove any jams.

Warning: Fuser or area may be hot.

6After you have cleared the jams, reinstall the print cartridge assembly, make sure all printer covers and trays are

closed, and then press Continue to resume printing.

Note: Jam recovery is set to Auto by default. When jam recovery is set to Auto, the memory that holds the image of a page may be re-used after the page is printed but before it has successfully exited the printer if that memory is needed for another use. Therefore, a jammed page may or may not be reprinted, depending on the printer’s overall memory usage.
