Problems with the paper feed
The paper is not fed in
1 Check that the display shows the correct paperway, if neces-
sary select the correct paperway (single sheet or fanfold) with
the key Park. See
Changing the paper path (page 26)
. If you
wish to use optional paper types, make sure they are correctly
installed.
2 Make sure that the paper guide is correctly adjusted at the side.
3 When using single sheets, push the paper fully into the paper
feed.
When having torn off the fanfold paper and after
switching over from fanfold paper to single sheets,
the fanfold paper moves to the park position.
4 Check that the fanfold paper is in the park position when you
insert a single sheet. This means the fanfold paper should not
be loaded (pulled in). To check this, raise the guide of the single
sheet feeder.
If necessary, drive the remaining paper manually to
the park position with the
key.
