You must re-thread the printer with the jam.
In addition to re-threading the printer with the jam, you may also have to
re-thread the other printer (if the jam occurred in Printer 1). Whenever re-threading
is required, the Align Forms window (
Forms
→
Align Forms ) automatically appears
on the touch panel. This requires you to execute and complete the “Align Forms”
procedure.

Suggestions for preventing jams
The best way to prevent jams is to use forms and applications that were designed
for use with the printers. Adjusting or repairing the printer cannot correct form
and application problems.
If a particular form jams frequently, refer the application owner to the Forms Design
Reference . This book contains detailed information about selecting forms and
designing applications for use with continuous-forms printers.
It is also important to ensure that the forms are loaded correctly. To prevent jams
from happening, do the following:
v
Ensure that the forms are not being damaged either in the forms input area or
before they reach the transfer corona within the printer engine, or in the
Buffer/Flipper unit between the printers when they are in duplex mode.
v
Ensure that the perforations have ties at the ends, not cuts.
v
Ensure that the back side of the forms do not have dark colors or markings with
dual simplex mode, or that either side of the forms do not have dark colors or
markings when the printers are in duplex mode.
v If you are using fan-fold forms, ensure that the folded or leading edge is not
wrinkled or torn.
v
If you are using fan-fold forms and the first page is folded under, ensure that
the tractor holes line up
exactly , especially if you are using forms with a 1/3-inch
or 2/3-inch length.
v
Ensure that the tractor holes are aligned correctly on the tractor pins.
v
Ensure that the forms are positioned correctly in the forms input area. The forms
must not twist or tear when they travel around the input guide, splicing table,
and transfer station.
v
If the forms are in a box, ensure that the box does not interfere with form
movement.
v If you are using fan-fold forms and the stack of forms seems to curve (dishing),
roll the first form in the opposite direction of the curve. Then unroll it before
you put the form on the transfer station lower tractors.
v
Load different forms, or if you are using fan-fold forms, a new box of the same
forms. Ensure that the forms are loaded correctly.
v
If the jam occurs only with one kind of form, especially one that has not been
used before on the printers, the problem may be form-related. Forms that are
unusually heavy or light and forms that have holes or cuts are all likely to cause
jams.
