How to Clear A Media Jam
This section describes areas where media could jam and 
gives basic instructions for clearing jams in each of these 
areas. Use these instructions to safely remove jammed 
media from your printer. The printer is designed to 
automatically shut down when a jam occurs, but will 
resume your print job at the point at which it was 
interrupted after the jam has been cleared.
You can greatly reduce the incidence of media jams by 
following these simple guidelines.
• Use media that is in good condition (not torn, 
wrinkled, or moist).
• Use recommended types, amounts, sizes, and weights 
• Load all media properly, and make sure that it is 
properly oriented for printing. (You can also try 
turning the media over if jams occur.)
• Fan paper before loading into the tray.
• Select the correct Media Type in your printer driver.
A jammed transparency may not be easily visible; use the 
media jam diagrams and information that follow to help you 
locate and remove transparency jams.
