Learn how to avoid paper jams
To help avoid paper jams, follow these guidelines.
● Do not overfill the input tray.
● Remove printed papers from the output tray frequently.
● Ensure that paper loaded in the input tray lays flat, and the edges are not bent or torn.
● Do not combine different paper types and paper sizes in the input tray; the entire stack of paper in the
input tray must be the same size and type.
● Adjust the paper-width guide in the input tray to fit snugly against all paper. Make sure the paper-width
guide does not bend the paper in the input tray.
● Do not force paper too far down in the input tray.
● Do not add paper while the printer is printing. If the printer is about to run out of paper, wait until the out
of paper message appears before adding paper.
