Preventing Media Misfeeds

Make sure that...

"

Media matches the printer specifications.

"

Media is flat, especially on the leading edge.

"

The printer is on a hard, flat, level surface.

"

You store media in a dry location away from moisture and humidity.

"

You always adjust the media guides in Tray 1 after inserting the media (a
guide that is not properly adjusted can cause poor print quality, media
misfeeds, and printer damage).

"

You load the media printing-side up in the tray (many manufacturers place
an arrow on the end of the wrapper to indicate the printing side).

Avoid...

"

Media that is folded, wrinkled, or excessively curled.

"

Double feeding (remove the media and fan the sheets—they may be
sticking together).

"

Loading more than one type/size/weight of media in a tray at the same
time.

"

Overfilling the trays.

"

Allowing the output tray to overfill (the output tray has a 100-sheet
capacity—misfeeding may occur if you allow more than 100 sheets of
media to accumulate at one time).
