Introduction

This chapter covers basic printer operation with various kinds of print 
media, loading paper and envelopes, and the paper delivery system 
of the printer. Manual feed is included as is tray chaining (switching). 
This chapter also explains what a status page is and how to cancel 
print jobs at the operator control panel.

Preventing Media Jams

There are several things you can do to reduce the occurrence of 
media jams.

n

Your paper, labels, and overhead transparencies must meet the 
guidelines set for the printer. See appendix B, “Technical Specifi-
cations.” 

n

If you have problems with double feeding, remove the media from 
the cassette or input bin and fan the edges. The sheets may be 
sticking together. However, do not fan transparencies since this 
causes static electricity.

n

Print media must be stored away from moisture and humidity.

n

Many manufacturers place an arrow on the end of the wrapper 
that indicates which side of the media should be used for printing. 
If you have problems and cannot determine which side of the 
paper should be printed, remove the paper from the cassette, 
rotate the stack a half-turn, turn the stack over, and then place it 
back in the cassette.

n

If none of the above relieves media jamming, notify your vendor.
