Paper Jams

Paper Jams

Paper jams are generally the most common and reoccurring problem encountered when using any printer. Paper may jam anywhere along the paper path—from the paper tray to the output tray. Sensors within the printer constantly monitor paper travel, so when a sheet of paper fails to arrive at a certain point within a specific time, the printer interprets that to mean that the paper has stopped between two sensors along the paper path. The printer then displays a Paper Jam error message that corresponds to that specific jam.

When paper gets jammed inside the printer, printing stops and an error code indicating the posi- tion of the jam appears on the display.
