Paper Jams

Your printer has been designed to provide reliable, trouble

 

free operation. However, it is not unusual to experience an

 

occasional paper jam. Paper jams occur most often when:

 

• The throughput stock does not meet specification. See

 

“Paper Specifications” (page 2-6).

 

• The paper stock is in poor condition.

 

• The paper stock has been improperly loaded into the

 

paper trays. See “Loading Paper” (page 2-19).

 

• The printer needs cleaning. See “Cleaning the Printer”

 

(page 6-14).

 

• Printer parts have worn and need to be replaced.

 

When first powered ON, the printer detects any jammed

 

paper. The movement of paper through the printer is

 

constantly being monitored by the printer’s controllers.

 

When the printer detects a misfeed or a paper jam, the

 

printing process is halted, the chime alarm is sounded (if

 

enabled), and a Control Panel message is displayed.

 

After the paper jam has been cleared, the printer will resume

 

operation to complete the print job.
