1
Open and close the front cover. The jammed paper is automatically
ejected from the printer.
2
Gently pull the jammed paper out of the output tray.
If you do not see the jammed paper or if there is any resistance
when you pull, stop pulling and go to the next step.
3
Open the top cover and inner cover.
Caution
• When removing the jammed paper, be careful not to touch the
heat roller (located underneath the inner cover). It is hot and
could cause burns!
• The top and inner cover themselves may also be hot due to
the heat roller. Allows the printer to cool before opening the
covers.
4
Loosen the jammed paper if it is caught in the heat roller. Then
gently pull the jammed paper out.
5
Close the inner cover and top cover. Printing automatically
resumes.
