Clearing jams

Jam error messages appear on the printer display and include the area
of the printer where the jam occurred. When there is more than one
jam, the number of jammed pages is displayed.

Avoiding jams

Load paper properly

Make sure paper lies flat in the tray.

Correct loading of paper

Incorrect loading of paper

Do not remove a tray while the printer is printing.

Do not load a tray while the printer is printing. Load it before
printing, or wait for a prompt to load it.

Do not load too much paper. Make sure the stack height is below
the maximum paper fill indicator.

Do not slide the paper into the tray. Load paper as shown in the
illustration.

Make sure the guides in the tray or the multipurpose feeder are
properly positioned and are not pressing tightly against the paper
or envelopes.

Push the tray firmly into the printer after loading paper.

If you are loading prepunched paper for use with the staple finisher,
then make sure the holes on the long edge of the paper are on the
right side of the tray. For more information, see the “Loading paper
and specialty media” section of the 

User’s Guide

.

Allow the paper to enter the optional mailbox bins
properly

Make sure to adjust the bin extender so that the paper size
indicators match the size of the paper used.

Notes:

If the bin extender is shorter than the size of the paper you
are printing on, then the paper causes a jam in the mailbox
bin. For example, if you are printing on a legal-size paper and
the bin extender is set to letter-size, then a jam occurs.

If the bin extender is longer than the size of the paper you
are printing on, then the edges become uneven and the
