We recommend that you clear the entire paper path when a paper jam
occurs.
To clear a paper jam:
1
If you are feeding paper from a tray, remove the tray, and then
remove any jams.
2
Open the front cover and remove the print cartridge assembly.
3
Remove any jams in the area behind the print cartridge
assembly.
4
Lift the flap at the front of the printer and remove any jams
beneath the flap.
5
Open the rear exit and remove any jams.
6
After you have cleared the jams, reinstall the print cartridge
assembly, make sure all printer covers and trays are closed, and
then press Continue
to resume printing.
