Verify that the humidity in the room is within specifications for this printer and that paper is being stored in

unopened packages. Most reams of paper are sold in moisture-proof wrapping to keep paper dry.

In high-humidity environments, paper at the top of the stack in the tray can absorb moisture, and it might

have a wavy or uneven appearance. If this happens, remove the top 5 to 10 sheets of paper from the stack.

In low-humidity environments, excess static electricity can cause sheets of paper to stick together. If this

happens, remove the paper from the tray, and flex the stack by holding it at each end and bringing the ends

up to form a U shape. Then, rotate the ends down to reverse the U shape. Next, hold each side of the stack

of paper, and repeat this process. This process releases individual sheets without introducing static

electricity. Straighten the paper stack against a table before returning it to the tray.

Check the printer control panel to see if it is displaying a prompt to feed the paper manually. Load paper,

The rollers above the tray might be contaminated. Clean the rollers with a lint-free cloth dampened with

warm water. Use distilled water, if it is available.

CAUTION:

Do not spray water directly on to the printer. Instead, spray water on the cloth or dab the cloth

in water and wring it out before cleaning the rollers.

The following image shows examples of the roller location for various printers.
