Paper handling difficulties 

Difficulties

Suggestions

The machine does not feed paper.

The LCD shows 

No Paper

 or a 

Paper Jam message.

If there is no paper, load a new stack of paper into the paper tray.

If there is paper in the paper tray, make sure it is straight. If the paper is curled, 
you should straighten it. Sometimes it is helpful to remove the paper, turn the 
stack over and put it back into the paper tray.

Reduce the amount of paper in the paper tray, and then try again.

(For FAX-2950, MFC-7240 and MFC-7290)

Make sure that manual feed mode is not chosen in the printer driver.

Clean the paper pick-up roller. See 

Routine maintenance

 

uu

 page 54.

If the LCD shows the Paper Jam message and you still have a problem, see 

Error and maintenance messages

 

uu

 page 78.

Documents do not feed or 
document are skewed.

Clean the document feed rollers. See 

Cleaning the document feed

 

uu

 page 67.

What paper can I use?

You can use thin paper, plain paper, bond paper, recycled paper, envelopes and 
labels that are made for laser machines. (For details, see 

Acceptable paper and 

other print media

 

uu

 page 17.) 

You can load envelopes from the manual feed slot.
