4-3. Precautions for Clearing Paper Jams
Temporary
Paper feed flow
•When clearing paper jams, leave the main power switch or sub power
switch on. When the power is turned off, you cannot pull out the tray or
the conveyance fixing unit.
•When clearing paper jams, operate the green part (lever,
knob, etc.) and follow the procedure displayed on the
control panel to clear the paper jams.
•The fusing unit is at high temperature. Follow the
instructions on the control panel and caution label to
clear the paper jams.
•When clearing paper jams, operate the green part (lever, knob, etc.) and follow
the procedure displayed on the control panel to clear the paper jams.
•This system has an "automatic purge function". Do not open the door of the
machine or option during the purge operation.
What is the automatic purge function?
This function forces the print paper to be ejected to the nearest subtray, etc. so that the
print paper behind the place where the paper jam occurred does not become jammed
further. Keep the power to the machine turned on during the purge operation.

5Replenishment and Replacement of Consumables
12
5-1. What Are Consumables?
Consumables are parts that require processing such as replenishment, disposal, and
replacement of this system. The main processing of consumables is as follows:
Toner bottle replacement, Waste toner box replacement, *Cyclone box replacement, Staple
needle replenishment/disposal, *Glue pellet replenishment, Humidification tank water
supply, Trimming scrap disposal
* Cyclone Box: Used to suck and store toner to prevent the toner from scattering inside the
machine.
* Staple needle disposal: Dispose of needle scraps generated when staple needles are cut
to suit the thickness of the booklet.
* Glue pellets: Granular glue for perfect binder.
