HP 4250/4350 manual Clearing jams, Jam locations

Clearing jams

If a jam message appears on the printer control-panel display, look for jammed paper or other print media in the locations that are indicated in the figure below. Then see the procedure for clearing the jam. You might need to look for media in other locations than those that are indicated in the jam message. If the location of the jam is not obvious, look first in the top-cover area underneath the print cartridge.

When clearing jams, be very careful not to tear jammed media. If a small piece of media is left in the printer, it could cause additional jams. If jams are a recurring problem, see Solving repeated jams.
