General considerations
for clearing
jams
Bear in mind the following considerations when attempting jam removal:
CAUTION:
When pulling the paper, pull it gently so as not to tear it. Torn pieces of paper are difficult
to remove and may be easily overlooked, deterring the jam recovery.
• If paper jams occur frequently, try using a different type of paper, replace the paper with paper
from another ream, flip the paper stackover, or rotatethepaper stack 180 degrees. Selection of
paper is fully discussed in the Handling Paper section in the Advanced Operation Guide. The
printer may have problems if paper jams recur after the paper was replaced.
• Whether or not the jammed pages are reproduced normally after printing is resumed depends
on the location of the paper jam.
Utilizing Online Help Messages
Online help messages are available in the printer’s message display to provide simple instructio
ns
for clearing jams. Press ( ) when the paper jam message has appeared. Then a help message wi
ll
appear to facilitate jam clearing in the location.
