Printing problems
The paper keeps
jamming.
• There is too much paper in the tray. Remove
excess paper from the tray. If you are printing
on special materials, use the multi-purpose
tray.
• An incorrect type of paper is being used. Use
only paper that meets the specifications
required by the machine. (See "Specification
on print media" on page 35.)
• There may be debris inside the machine. Open
the front cover and remove the debris.
• If an original does not feed into the machine,
the DADF rubber pad may need to be
replaced. Contact a service representative.
Transparencies
stick together in the
paper exit.
Use only transparencies specifically designed for
laser printers. Remove each transparency as it
exits from the machine.
Envelopes skew or
fail to feed correctly.
Ensure that the paper guides are against both
sides of the envelopes.
