Paper Jam 201 - Indicates media is jammed between the paper pass sensor and the paper exit sensor.
•Open the front cover to access the area of the paper jam. Notice the location of the paper jam.
•Determine if media jammed prior to activating the paper pass sensor in the printer. The paper pass sensor may not be detecting media over the sensor, or media may be arriving late.
•If the paper is jamming at, or over the paper exit sensor, the paper exit sensor may be failing. Go to the “Paper Exit Sensor Service Check” on page
