Avoiding Jams
❏
Use only recommended print media.
❏
See “Loading Print Media in the Multipurpose Feeder (MPF)” on page 37 to load print media
properly.
❏
Do not overload the print media sources. Ensure that the stacked print media does not exceed the
maximum height indicated on the paper width guides.
❏
Do not load wrinkled, creased, damp, or curled print media.
❏
Flex, fan, and straighten print media before you load it. If a jam occurs with print media, try
feeding one sheet at a time through the MPF.
❏
Do not use print media that you have cut or trimmed.
❏
Do not mix print media sizes, weights, or types in the same print media source.
❏
Ensure that the recommended print side is face up when you insert the print media.
❏
Keep print media stored in an acceptable environment.
❏
Ensure that all cables that connect to the printer are correctly attached.
❏
Overtightening the guides may cause jams.
