Paper curl and paper jams

Too much curl in the paper stock can cause paper jams. You can
adjust the decurler lever to eliminate most of these problems. Refer
to the paper curl chart at the end of this chapter to determine the
amount of curl in the paper stock.

Measuring the paper curl

To measure the paper curl:

1. Print five one-sided (simplex) 8.5 by 11 inch or A4 sheets.

2. Measure the amount of curl in the prints by holding the five

prints in the top center of the short edge.

Keep the image toward you.

Figure 5-1.

3. Place the bottom edge of the prints over the paper curl

measurement chart located at the end of this chapter.

If the print curl on the printed paper stock measures
between +2 and -2, do not change the decurler setting.

If the curl is between +2 and +3, or -3 and -4, use the
following procedure to adjust the decurler lever.
