Introduction
If a paper jam occurs in the saddle stitch unit of the stacker/stapler (Saddle Finisher), the control
panel will display the location of the paper jam and a procedure to clear the paper jam. Follow the
procedure on the control panel to clear the paper jam. The procedure below describes how to
clear a paper jam in the saddle stitch unit of the stacker/stapler.
CAUTION
• When you remove jammed originals or paper, take care not to cut your hands on the edges
of the originals or paper.
• When you remove jammed originals or paper, take care not to cut your hands on the inside
of the machine. If you cannot remove the paper, contact your local authorized dealer.
• Be careful when you handle optional units that are attached to the machine. When you open
the door or cover of an optional unit to replace a staple cartridge, discard the punch waste, or
clear paper jams or staple jams, prints may still be output if other optional units are
