Troubleshooting
l
Paper feeding is
crooked
or
the
paper jams.
The position of your paper supply may be preventing it from
feeding straight. Make sure the paper supply is not
obstructed by a cable or some other object.
Make sure that your paper supply is positioned within 1
meter (3 feet) of the printer.
Check that the holes on the sides of the paper are aligned
with each other. Also, make sure the sprocket units are
locked and their covers are closed.
Check that the paper-thickness lever is set correctly for the
paper you are using. See “Adjusting the paper-thickness
lever” in Chapter 2.
Check that the paper size and thickness are within the
specified range. See the paper specifications in the Appendix.
l
The paper does not eject properly.
The page may be too long. Tear off the fresh supply of paper
and eject the page from the printer. Use only paper that is
within the specified length range described in the Appendix.
l
When you switch between single skeets and continuous paper, the
beeper sounds several times and the READY light goes 0ff.
You may have tried to change the paper-release lever
position while paper remained in the printer. Return the
paper-release lever to the previous position and eject paper
(or feed paper to the paper-park position). Then change the
paper-release lever position.
