Guide

Avoiding jams

The following hints can help you avoid jams:

Use only recommended print media.

Do not overload the print media sources. Make 
sure the stack height does not exceed the 
maximum height indicated by the stack line on 
the labels in the sources.

Do not load wrinkled, creased, damp, or curled 
print media.

Flex, fan, and straighten print media before you 
load it. If jams do occur with print media, try 
feeding one sheet at a time through the 
multipurpose feeder.

Do not use print media that you have cut or 
trimmed yourself.

Do not mix print media sizes, weights, or types 
in the same print media source.

Make sure the recommended print side is 
loaded in the source according to your simplex 
or duplex needs.

Keep print media stored in an acceptable 
environment. 

Do not remove trays during a print job.

Push all trays in firmly after loading them.

Make sure the guides in the trays are properly 
positioned for the size of print media you have 
loaded. Make sure the guides are not placed 
too tightly against the stack of print media.
