 4.5.6. Clearing jams

From time to time, you will experience the inevitable paper jam. When a jam 

occurs, the system will alert you as to where the jam has taken place. Clear the 

jam, press the white On button to reset the interlock system, and press 

Continue

 on the dialog box (Figure 4-22) to continue running the job.

Tips for clearing jams

-  Don’t rush

Develop good habits in clearing jams to maintain the 

sequence integrity of the document and check. If you fail to do this, you can 

be sure you will hear from the supervisor in Remittance Processing. Speed 

is of no use without quality. You will improve with practice; thoroughly 

trained operators average under 20 seconds to clear a jam and get the 

machine running again.

-  Clear only the actual jam

Remember that the machine will clear the 

paper path automatically. You only have to deal with the actual crunch. 

Check “dead zones” where an envelope may not be positively controlled by 

the belts.

-  Match up each check and document

Doing this will greatly reduce the 

possibility of mis

-

matching checks and documents. Looking through 

batches of “finished work” manually wastes time.
