Clearing Paper Jams
To reduce paper jams:
•Do not fill tray above Paper Full mark.
•Use only recommended paper weight
-Tray: 16 to 28 lb. (60 to 105 g/m2)
-Manual feed: 16 to 32 lb (60 to 120.5 g/m2)
•Do not open the cover, or remove the paper tray during a print job.
•Do not switch paper exit paths while printing.
•Use paper that is smooth and of high quality.
•Store paper in its ream wrapper until you are ready to use it, and keep it away from moisture or other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.
•Avoid printing on both sides of the paper for more than a few pages, or preprinted documents that have been in a photocopier.
•Try paper before you buy in quantity.
If a paper jam message displays, remove the jam using the instructions that follow.
