Clearing Paper Jams
Provided that you follow the recommendations in this guide on the
use of print media, and you keep the media in good condition prior
to use, your printer should give years of reliable service. However,
paper jams occasionally do occur, and this section explains how to
clear them quickly and simply.
Jams can occur due to paper misfeeding from a paper tray or at
any point on the paper path. When a jam occurs, the printer
immediately stops, and the Status Panel (together with the Status
Monitor) informs you. If printing multiple pages (or copies), do not
assume that, having cleared an obvious sheet, others will not also
be stopped somewhere along the path. These must also be
removed in order to restore normal operation.
