Clearing Media Jams 79

Clearing Media Jams
To avoid damage, always remove jammed media gently, without tearing it.
Any pieces of media left in the printer, whether large or small, can obstruct the
media path and cause further jams. Do not reload media that has jammed.
Attention
The image is not fixed on the media before the fusing process. If you
touch the printed surface, the toner may stick to your hands, so be
careful not to touch the print face when removing the jammed media.
Make sure not to spill any toner inside the printer.
Unfused toner can dirty your hands, clothes, or anything else it gets on.
If you accidentally get toner on your clothes, lightly dust them off as
much as possible. If some toner remains on your clothes, use cool, not
hot water, to rinse the toner off. If toner gets on your skin, wash it off
with water or a neutral detergent.
WARNING!
If you get toner in your eyes, wash it out immediately and consult a
doctor. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) information can be found at
www.minolta-qms.com (click on the Answer Base).
If, after clearing the media jam, the jam message in the control panel window
persists, open and close the printer’s doors. This should clear the jam
message.
