Printing
Avoiding jams
You can avoid most paper jams by correctly loading paper and specialty media in the printer.
See the following for loading instructions:
•
Loading 500-sheet trays
•
Loading the 2000-sheet tray
•
Loading the multipurpose feeder
The following hints can help you avoid paper jams:
• Use only recommended paper.
• Do not remove paper trays while a job is printing. Wait for a
Load Tray <x>
or
Ready
message before you
remove the tray.
• Do not load wrinkled, creased, or damp paper.
• Never mix media types within a tray.
• Flex, fan, and straighten paper before you load it.
• Do not overload the trays or the multipurpose feeder. Make sure the stack height does not exceed the maximum
height indicated.
• Push all trays firmly into the printer after loading them.
• Make sure the guides in the trays are properly positioned for the size paper you have loaded.
• Do not send jobs to staple, hole punch, or offset for transparencies, labels, or card stock.
• We recommend that transparencies, labels, card stock, and envelopes not be sent to the optional mailbox or
optional finisher. These specialty media types should be sent to the standard bin.
• If an optional finisher or mailbox is attached, make sure the printer and option are correctly aligned. For alignment
instructions, see the instruction sheet that came with your option.
• Make sure all cables that connect the high capacity feeder or finisher to the printer are correctly attached. For
more information, see the instruction sheet that came with your option.
• If a jam should occur, clear the entire paper path. For more information, see Clearing the entire paper path .
