Paper handling difficulties
Difficulties Suggestions
The machine does not load paper.
The LCD shows No Paper or a
Paper Jam message.
If there is no paper, load a new stack of paper into the paper tray.
If there is paper in the paper tray, make sure it is straight. If the paper is curled,
you should straighten it. Sometimes it is helpful to remove the paper, turn the
stack over and put it back into the paper tray.
Reduce the amount of paper in the paper tray, and then try again.
If the LCD shows Paper Jam message and you still have a problem, see
Paper jams on page 114.
