Printing Problems
¥ The film or envelopes may not be loaded correctly.
Make sure you load no more than 10 transparencies or
envelopes in the automatic feeder. Depending on the
thickness, the maximum capacity may need to be
reduced.
¥ When you feed paper into the manual feeder, you
must load one sheet at a time.
¥ The paper you are using may be causing the jams. Fan
the paper before stacking it in the paper feeder. This
keeps the sheets from sticking together.
¥ Check that the paper you are using and your printing
environment are within the specifications of the unit.
