Paper Jams
Chapter 7: Troubleshooting
❖
7-27
Your printer has been designed to provide reliable, trouble
free operation. However, it is not unusual to experience an
occasional paper jam. Paper jams occur most often when:
• The throughput stock does not meet specification. See
“Paper Specifications” (page 2-6)
.
• The paper stock is in poor condition.
• The paper stock has been improperly loaded into the
paper trays. See
“Loading Paper” (page 2-19)
.
• The printer needs cleaning. See
“Cleaning the Printer”
(page 6-14)
.
• Printer parts have worn and need to be replaced.
When first powered ON, the printer detects any jammed
paper. The movement of paper through the printer is
constantly being monitored by the printer’s controllers.
When the printer detects a misfeed or a paper jam, the
printing process is halted, the chime alarm is sounded (if
enabled), and a Control Panel message is displayed.
After the paper jam has been cleared, the printer will resume
operation to complete the print job.
