Paper Handling Multiple pages feed into the printer. l You may not have tapped the paper edges sufficiently to ensure smooth paper feeding. If the paper has also jammed, remove it as described earlier in this chapter. Tap the edges of the stack of paper firmly on a flat surface to even up the stack; then reinsert the paper. Try printing again. l Poor quality paper can cause paper feeding errors. Make sure your paper supply is not too thin or rough. See Chapter 4 for more information on choosing the right paper for your printer. The paper feeds but then jams at the paper eject area. l There may be too much paper in the output tray. Never let more than 150 sheets accumulate in the face-down output tray on top of the printer. If you install the optional face-up output tray, never let more than 50 sheets accumulate in the face-up tray. Printed pages curl too much and are not placed in the output tray properly. Your paper may be moist or damp. The printer is sensitive to moisture absorbed by the paper. Do not store your paper in a humid or damp environment. You may not be using the correct type of paper for your printer. Use smooth, high-quality copier paper for best results. See Chapter 4 for more information on choosing paper. Most paper has a natural curl that may be emphasized when it is run through a laser printer. Turn the stack of paper over in your paper cassette and try printing on the other side. Use the optional face-up tray. This tray provides a straightthrough paper path that prevents excessive curling. 6-32 Troubleshooting
