MISFEED REMOVAL

Misfeed in the paper feed area

NOTE

Be sure to follow the misfeed removal sequence. Do not pull the tray out immediately as the misfeed may have occurred with paper partially fed out of the tray. Open the left cover and see if there is misfed paper first (steps 1 and 2). If you open the tray without checking, the partially fed paper may tear and leave torn pieces in the machine, increasing the difficulty of removal.

Misfeed in paper tray 1

1 Unlatch the duplex module and slide it to the left.

Unlatch the module and gently move the module away from the machine. If the machine is not equipped with a duplex module, open the side cover similarly.

2Remove the misfed paper.

Be careful not to tear the misfed paper during removal.

NOTE

The paper may not be extending out far from inside the machine but must be removed if it is possible to grasp it. If it is not possible to grasp it, go to the next step.

3If misfed paper is not found in step 2, pull out paper tray 1 and remove the misfed paper.

Be careful not to tear the misfed paper during removal.

4Gently close the paper tray.

Push the paper tray back into the machine.

5Gently close the duplex module.

If the machine is not equipped with a duplex module, close the side cover.

After closing, confirm

that the misfeed message is cleared and

the normal display appears.

NOTE

If paper drops beyond the rear side of the paper tray that has been pulled out, remove the paper tray and then remove the paper. (For removal of the paper tray, see the illustration below.)

After pulling out the paper tray until it stops, gently lift and pull the tray to remove it. To reinstall the paper tray, insert it at an angle and then push it into the machine.

To remove a paper tray from a stand/paper drawer, pull the tray out until it stops then rotate it to the left to disengage it from the stand. When reinstalling it, place the left rear or the drawer into the slot and rotate the drawer to the right and into the stand.

Installation of trays in the stand/3x500 sheet paper drawer

The middle and lower trays cannot be installed in the upper tray position and the upper tray cannot be installed to the middle and lower tray positions. (These cannot be pushed into the machine.)

Take care not to install a tray to an improper position after removing the tray.
