Chapter 5 Problem Solving 146 Clearing Paper Jams If the printer's control panel displays a paper jam message, look for paper in the locations indicated in the graphic below, then see the procedure for clearing the paper jam. You might need to look for paper in other locations than indicated in the paper jam message. If the location of the paper jam is not obvious, look first in the top cover area. When clearing paper jams, be very careful not to tear the paper. If a small piece of paper is left in the printer, it could cause additional jams. If paper jams are a recurring problem, see page 166. Note After the jam is cleared, the top cover of the printer must be opened and closed to clear the paper jam message from the control panel. Continued on next page. Clearing Paper Jams
