Clearing jams
Carefully select paper and specialty media, and then load them properly to avoid most jams. If jams occur, then follow
the steps outlined in this chapter.
Note:
Jam Recovery is set to Auto by default. The printer reprints jammed pages unless the memory required to hold
the pages is needed for other printer tasks.
Avoiding jams

Make sure paper lies flat in the tray.
Correct loading of paper
Incorrect loading of paper

against the paper or envelopes.
