Manual Feeder, Tips for Avoiding Paper Jams | Samsung SCX-4100

In the Manual Feeder

“Paper Jam 1 Open/Close Door” appears on the display when you try to print using the manual feeder and the machine does not detect paper, due to no paper or improper paper loading.

The error message may also occur when the paper is not properly fed into the machine through the manual feeder. In that case, pull the paper out of the machine.

Tips for Avoiding Paper Jams

By selecting the correct paper types, most paper jams can be avoided. When a paper jam occurs, follow the steps outlined in page 8.2.

•Follow the procedures on page 1.8 when you load paper. Ensure that the adjustable guides are positioned correctly.

•Do not overload the paper tray. Ensure that the paper is below the paper capacity mark on the inside wall of the paper tray.

•Do not remove the paper from the tray while your machine is printing.

•Flex, fan, and straighten the paper before loading.

•Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper.

•Do not mix paper types in the paper tray.

•Use only recommended print materials. See “Paper Specifications” on page A.5.
