Media jam.

To find the jam: See the front panel message. Also, refer to the

illustration on the inside front door.

To clear the jam: Refer to the printer’s User Guide.

Make sure that paper or transparencies are installed correctly

and in the media-specific tray. See the user guide for details
on loading media.

To prevent a jam: Clean the rollers. See page 88 for details on

cleaning.

Too much media is loaded in
the media tray.

Reduce the amount of media to below the media level indicator
on the media tray label.

Media is wrinkled or curled.

Change the media.

Media is too thick or too thin.

Use recommended media.

For media loaded in the Multi-Purpose Tray, make sure that you
have set the Media Thickness Switch on the printer to
accommodate thick, medium, or thin media.
