Solving Problems with Media Misfeeds
"
Frequent misfeeds in any area indicate that area should be checked,
repaired, or cleaned. Repeated misfeeds may also happen if you’re
using unsupported print media or original media.

Several
sheets go

from humidity.
Remove the moist media and replace it
with new, dry media.

tricity is present.
Do not fan transparencies.

sure that you have removed all of the
misfed media.

rently approved media.

autoduplexed if the media type is set

tions” on page 66.

media types in the tray.

head, postcards, thick stock, glossy
