6 COPIER TROUBLE?
This chapter describes misfeed removal and troubleshooting.
MISFEED REMOVAL
When the misfeed ( ) indicator blinks or | blinks in the display, the copier will stop because |
of a misfeed. |
|
If a misfeed occurs when using the RSPF, a number may appear in the display after a minus sign. This indicates the number of the originals that must be returned to the document feeder tray after a misfeed. Return the required number of originals. Then this number will disappear when copying is resumed or the clear () key is pressed.
When the RSPF misfeeds an original sheet, the copier will stop and the RSPF misfeed ( ) indicator will blink, while the misfeed ( ) indicator will remain off. For a misfeed of originals in the RSPF, see “E Misfeed in the RSPF” on page 39.
If the copier is turned on with the lower side cover open, the misfeed ( | ) |
indicator will blink. In this case, close the lower side cover. The misfeed ( | ) |
indicator will go out.

side cover open button. | ||
