MISFEED REMOVAL

When the misfeed ( ) indicator blinks or blinks in the display, the unit will
stop because of a misfeed. If a misfeed occurs when using the SPF, a number may
appear in the display after a minus sign. This indicates the number of the originals
that must be returned to the original feeder tray after a misfeed. Return the required
number of originals. Then this number will disappear when copying is resumed or the
clear ( ) key is pressed. When the SPF misfeeds an original sheet, the unit will
stop and the SPF misfeed ( ) indicator will blink, while the misfeed ( ) indicator
will remain off. For a misfeed of originals in the SPF, see "E: Misfeed in the SPF"
(p.55).
1Open the multi-bypass tray, and side cover, in that order.
To open the multi-bypass tray, see "The multi-bypass tray" (p.10). To open
the side cover, see "TONER CARTRIDGE REPLACEMENT" (p.45).
2Check the misfeed location. Remove the misfed paper

following the instructions for each location in the illustration

below. If the misfeed ( ) indicator blinks, proceed to "A:

Misfeed in the paper feed area" (p.53).

If the unit is turned on with the lower side cover open, the misfeed ( )
indicator will blink. In this case, close the lower side cover. The misfeed
( ) indicator will go out.
If paper is misfed here, proceed to "A:
Misfeed in the paper feed area". (p.53)
If paper is misfed here, proceed to "B:
Misfeed in the fusing area". (p.53)
If the misfed paper is seen from
this side, proceed to "C: Misfeed
in the transport area". (p.54)
If paper is misfed here, proceed
to "D: Misfeed in the lower
paper feed area". (p.55)
