Clearing jams

If the control panel display shows a jam message, look for media in the locations indicated in the figure on the next page, and then see the procedure for clearing the jam. You might need to look for media in locations other than those indicated in the jam message. If the location of the jam is not obvious, look first in the top cover area underneath the toner cartridge.

When clearing jams, be very careful not to tear the media. If a small piece of media remains in the product, it could cause additional jams. If jams are a recurring problem, see “Solving repeated jams” on page 85.

Note

The top cover of the product must be opened and then closed to clear a jam message.

If a jam occurs in the optional power envelope feeder, see the installation and use documentation that accompanied the product.
