Clearing jams from the trays
This section describes how to clear jams from the trays. Also see
“Clearing jams from the
optional envelope feeder” on page 99
.
To clear jams from tray 1
Slowly pull the jammed paper or other print media out of the printer. If part of the paper has
already been pulled into the printer, follow the steps under
“To clear jams from the top-cover and
print-cartridge areas” on page 97
.
To clear jams from tray 2 or an optional 500-sheet tray
1
Slide the tray out of the printer, and remove any damaged paper
from the tray.
2
If the edge of the jammed paper is visible in the feed area, slowly
pull the paper down and out of the printer. (Do not pull the paper
straight out, or it will tear.) If the paper is not visible, look in the next
tray or in the top-cover area. (See
“To clear jams from the top-cover
and print-cartridge areas” on page 97
.)
Note
Do not force the paper if it will not move easily. If the paper is stuck in a
tray, try removing it through the tray above (if applicable) or through the
top-cover area.
3
Make sure that the paper is flat in the tray at all four corners and
below the maximum-height indicators.
4
Slide the tray back into the printer.
