MISFEED REMOVAL
A Misfeed in the paper feed area
Gently remove the misfed paper from the paper feed area as shown in the illustration.
When
blinks in the display and the misfed paper is not seen from the paper feed
area, pull out the paper tray and remove the misfed paper. If the paper cannot be
removed, proceed to “B Misfeed in the fusing area”.
The fusing unit is hot. Do not touch the fusing unit when removing misfed
paper. Doing so may cause a burn or other injury.
●
Do not touch the photoconductive drum (green portion) when removing the
misfed paper. Doing so may damage the drum and cause smudges on copies.
●
If the paper has been fed through the bypass tray, do not remove the misfed
paper through the bypass tray. Toner on the paper may stain the paper
transport area, resulting in smudges on copies.
Close the side cover by pressing the round projections near the side cover open
button. The misfeed (
) indicator will go out and the ready (
) indicator will light
up.
