Paper Handling

The following section guides you through problems in handling single sheets and continuous paper. If you are having problems using the optional cut sheet feeder, see the section on options starting on page 6-10.

Single sheets do not feed properly.

•When you insert the paper, the platen does not rotate and paper does not feed.

The paper may be too far to the right. Align the left edge guide with the arrow on the paper guide.

Check that the paper-release lever is in the single-sheet position.

•When you insert the paper, the platen rotates but paper does not feed.

Reinsert the paper more firmly.

•Paper feeding is crooked or the paper jams.
