| flashes when the printer is receiving a print job or performing a |
| maintenance operation, such as cleaning the print head. |

|
S flashes | When the S paper out light flashes, you have a paper jam. Turn off |
| the printer and gently pull out all paper. Make sure none of the |
| sheets are curled, creased, old, stuck together, or too thin. Then |
| reload the stack against the right edge guide and slide the left edge |
| guide over to the paper’s left edge. Then turn the printer on. |
|
