JAMS
Provided that you follow the recommendations in this guide on 
the use of print media, and you keep the media in good condition 
prior to use, your printer should give years of reliable service. 
However, paper jams occasionally do occur, and this section 
explains how to clear them quickly and simply.
Jams can occur due to paper misfeeding from a paper tray or at 
any point on the paper path through the printer. When a jam 
occurs, the printer immediately stops, and the Alert LED on the 
Status Panel (together with the Status Monitor) informs you of 
the event. If printing multiple pages (or copies), do not assume 
that, having cleared an obvious sheet, others will not also be 
stopped somewhere along the path. These must also be removed 
in order to clear the jam fully and restore normal operation.
