1Open the printer top access cover.

CAUTION—HOT SURFACE: The inside of the printer might be hot. To reduce the risk of injury from a hot component, allow the surface to cool before touching it.

2Open the front door.

Warning—Potential Damage: To avoid overexposing the photoconductor units, do not leave the front door open for more than 10 minutes.

3Firmly grasp the jammed paper on each side, and then gently pull the paper up and out to remove it from behind the toner cartridge area.

Note: Make sure all paper fragments are removed.
