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 “Clearing Paper Jams” on page 8.4.

Follow the procedures in “Loading Paper” on page 1.12. 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.6.

Ensure that the recommended print side of print materials is facing down in the paper tray and facing up in the Bypass tray.
