Your printer has been designed to provide reliable, trouble
free operation. However, it is not unusual to experience an
occasional paper jam. Paper jams occur most often when:
• The paper stock does not meet specification. See “Paper
Specifications” (page 2-6) .
• The paper stock is in poor condition.
• The paper stock has been improperly loaded into the
paper trays. See “Loading Paper” (page 2-14) .
• The printer needs cleaning. See “Fuser Cleaning Cycle”
(page 6-9) .
• Printer parts have worn and need to be replaced.
When first powered ON, the printer detects any jammed
paper. The movement of paper through the printer is
constantly being monitored by the printer’s controllers.
When the printer detects a misfeed or a paper jam, the
printing process is halted, and the Control Panel message
Open Cover
Clear Paper Path
is displayed. This message indicates that a jam was detected
in the printer. The entire paper path should be checked each
time a paper jam is cleared.
After the paper jam has been cleared, the printer will resume
operation to complete the print job.
