Problems With Paper Feeding
Paper doesn’t eject fully or is wrinkled.
The paper may be damp. Load new paper.
Paper doesn’t feed correctly or jams.
●If paper doesn’t feed, remove it, separate the sheets slightly, and reload it between the edge guides. Slide the guides to the edge of the paper, but don’t make them too tight. See page 6.
●If multiple pages feed at once, remove the paper, separate the sheets, and carefully reload it.
●If paper jams, remove any sheets loaded behind the jammed paper and press OK to eject the jammed paper. Don’t pull out jammed paper from the top of PictureMate.
●Make sure the handle is not resting on the paper.
