Troubleshooting

Solving option problems

If an option does not operate correctly after it is installed or if it quits working:

•Turn the printer off, wait for about 10 seconds, and turn the printer on. If this does not fix the problem, unplug the printer, and check the connection between the option and printer.

•Print the menu settings page and check to see if the option is listed in the Installed Options list. If the option is not listed, reinstall it. See Printing the menu settings page for more information.

•Make sure the option is selected in the software application you are using.

For Macintosh computer users: Make sure the printer is set up in Chooser.

The following table lists printer options and suggested corrective actions for related problems. If the suggested corrective action does not fix the problem, call your service representative.

Option	Action
Drawers	• Make sure the connection between drawers and the printer is secure.
	• Make sure the print media is loaded correctly.
Duplex unit	Make sure the connection between the duplex unit and the printer is secure. If the duplex
	unit is listed on the menu settings page, but print media jams when it enters or exits the
	duplex unit, the printer and duplex unit may not be properly aligned.
Finisher	• Make sure the connection between the finisher and the printer is secure. If the finisher is
	listed on the menu settings page, but print media jams when it exits the printer and
	enters the finisher, it may not be properly installed. Reinstall the finisher.
