	Paper jam recovery
	This printer automatically provides paper jam recovery, a feature that allows you to set
	whether the printer should attempt to automatically reprint jammed pages. The options are:
	● AUTO Printer will attempt to reprint jammed pages.
	● OFF Printer will not attempt to reprint jammed pages.
	During the recovery process, the printer may reprint several good pages that were printed
NOTE
	before the paper jam occurred. Be sure to remove any duplicated pages.
