Clearing Jams Careful selection of appropriate print media and proper loading allow you to avoid paper jams. See "Print Media Guidelines" for more information. NOTE: • Before buying large quantities of any print media, it is recommended to try a sample first. • To resolve the error displayed on the touch panel, you must clear all print media from the print media path. Avoiding Jams • Do not overload the print media sources. Ensure that the print media stack height does not exceed the maximum height indicated by the load-line labels in the tray. • Do not load wrinkled, creased, damp, or curled print media. • Flex, fan, and straighten print media before you load it. If a jam occurs with print media, try feeding one sheet at a time through the bypass tray. • Do not use print media that you have cut or trimmed yourself. • Do not mix print media sizes, weights, or types in the same print media source. • Ensure that the recommended print side is face up when you insert the print media. • Keep print media stored in an acceptable environment. For more information, see "Storing Print Media". • Do not remove the feeding tray during a print job. • Push Tray 1 or the optional 550-sheet feeder (Tray 2) in firmly after loading. • Ensure that all cables that connect to the printer are correctly attached. • Overtightening the guides may cause jams. • Wipe the retard rollers in the tray or bypass tray with a cloth that is slightly dampened with water if jams caused by misfeeding paper occur frequently. 396 | Clearing Jams
