What causes a paper jam?

Paper jams occur most often in these conditions:

Incorrect paper type selection in printer driver.

The paper does not meet specifications.

The paper is moist, bent, or folded.

The paper is not loaded properly.

The Universal Tray is not adjusted properly for the paper (side and rear guides).

The Universal Tray is overfilled. Make sure paper does not exceed tray capacity.

The loaded paper size is not supported by the paper tray.

The paper weights are not consistent with the paper tray capacities.

Videos are available with instructions for clearing jams. Videos are located on the CD-ROM or the Xerox web site: www.xerox.com/officeprinting/7700support/

If you loaded the videos on your PC’s hard drive, you can also access them in the driver’s Troubleshooting tab.
