Preventing Media Misfeeds

Make sure that...

Media matches the machine specifications.
Media is flat, especially on the leading edge.
The machine is on a hard, flat, level surface.
You store media in a dry location away from moisture and humidity.
You remove transparencies from the output tray immediately after printing to
avoid static buildup.
You always adjust the media guides in Tray 2/3 after inserting the media (a
guide that is not properly adjusted can cause poor print quality, media mis-
feeds, and machine 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)
.
Fanning transparencies since this causes static.
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 250 sheet capac-
ity—misfeeding may occur if you allow more than 250 sheets of media to
accumulate at one time)
.
Allowing the output tray to fill with more than a few transparencies.
