9. Removing Misfed Paper

Removing Misfed Paper

An error message appears if a paper misfeed occurs. The error message gives the location of the misfeed.

RCAUTION:

The inside of the machine becomes very hot. Do not touch the parts with a “v” label (means hot surface). Touching a part with a “v” label (means hot surface) could result in a burn.

RCAUTION:

When pulling the paper tray out, be careful not to pull it strongly. If you do, the tray might fall and cause an injury.

Important

Misfed paper may be covered in toner. Be careful not to get toner on your hands or clothes.

Toner on prints made after removing misfed paper may be loose (inadequate- ly fused). Make a few test prints until smudges no longer appear.

Do not forcefully remove misfed paper, it will tear. Torn pieces remaining in- side the printer will cause further misfeeds and possibly damage the printer.

More than one misfed area might be indicated. In this case, check every ap- plicable area. See the following charts shown in the illustration.

Do not leave any torn paper scraps within the printer.
