Tips for avoiding paper jams

By selecting the correct paper types, most paper jams can be

avoided. When a paper jam occurs, follow the steps outlined in

page 9.1.

• Follow the procedures in page 2.3. Ensure that the

adjustable guides are positioned correctly.

• Do not overload the paper input tray. Ensure that the paper

is below the paper capacity mark on the inside wall of the

paper input tray.

• Do not remove paper from the paper input tray while your

machine is printing.

• Flex, fan, and straighten the paper before loading.

• Do not use creased, damp, or highly curled paper.

• Do not mix paper types in the paper input tray.

• Use only recommended print materials. See page 3.2.

• Ensure that the recommended print side of print materials is

facing down in the paper input tray and facing up in the

manual feeder.
