Do not use sharp objects, such as tweezers or needle nose pliers, to remove

jams. Damage caused by sharp objects will not be covered by the warranty.

Always pull jammed media in the direction it would travel through the paper path.

Do not pull jammed media against the direction of travel through the paper path to avoid
damage to the printer.

To prevent damage to the printer when clearing jams, including jams in the output bin, always open
the print-cartridge door and remove the print cartridge. Keep the door open and the cartridge out until
the jam has been cleared. Opening the print-cartridge door and removing the print cartridge relieves
tension on the printer rollers, which prevents damage to the printer and makes the removal of
jammed pages easier.

Occasionally, media becomes jammed during a print job. You are notified of a media jam by an error
from the software and the printer control panel lights. See 

The following are some of the causes of media jams:

●

The input trays are loaded improperly or are too full. See 

.

When you add new media, always remove all of the media from the input tray

and straighten the stack of new media. This helps prevent multiple sheets of media from
feeding through the printer at one time, reducing media jams.

●

The media does not meet HP specifications. See 

.

●

Print cartridge area: See 

.

●

Input tray area: If the page is still sticking out of the input tray, gently try to remove it from the
input tray without tearing the page. If you feel resistance, see 

.

●

Output path: If the page is sticking out of the output bin, see 

There might be loose toner in the printer after a media jam. This toner clears up

after a few sheets are printed.

Use the procedures in this section to remove a jam.

Media jams might result in loose toner on the page. If you get any toner on your

clothes, wash them in cold water. Hot water will permanently set the toner into the fabric.
