Paper Jams Paper is jammed in the standard paper tray IMPORTANT B B If the paper cannot easily be removed in this direction, stop and follow the instructions for Paper is jammed inside the machine on page 55. If the LCD shows Jam Tray, follow these steps: a Pull the paper tray completely out of the machine. Note Pulling out the jammed paper downwards allows you to remove the paper more easily. c Make sure the paper is below the maximum paper mark (b b b) (1) of the paper tray.
Troubleshooting Paper is jammed at the back of the machine B If the LCD shows Jam Rear, a paper jam occurred behind the back cover. Follow these steps: a Open the front cover. Leave the machine turned on for 10 minutes to cool down. b Slowly take out the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly. CAUTION HOT SURFACE B After you have just used the machine, some internal parts of the machine will be extremely hot.
IMPORTANT d Pull down the tabs at the left and right hand sides to open the fuser cover (1). • We recommend that you place the drum unit and the toner cartridges on a clean, flat surface with a sheet of disposable paper or cloth underneath it in case you accidentally spill or scatter toner. • To prevent damage to the machine caused by static electricity, DO NOT touch the electrodes shown in the illustration. c 54 Open the back cover (face-up output tray).
Troubleshooting e Using both hands, gently pull the jammed paper out of the fuser unit. Paper is jammed inside the machine B If the LCD shows Jam Inside, follow these steps: f Close the fuser cover and the back cover (face-up output tray). g Put the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly back into the machine. h a Leave the machine turned on for 10 minutes to cool down. b Open the front cover.

The jammed paper may be pulled out with the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly, or this may release the paper so you can pull it out of the inside of the machine. If you cannot remove the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly easily, do not use extra force. Instead, go to step g.
Troubleshooting g e Lift the scanner cover. Use both hands to carefully pull the jammed paper up and out of the output tray opening. Put the toner cartridge back into the drum unit until you hear it lock into place. If you put the cartridge in correctly, the green lock lever will lift automatically. B f If you were able to remove the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly and the jammed paper, you have cleared the paper jam.
i If you could not pull the jammed paper out of the output tray opening as shown in step g, take the paper tray completely out of the machine. j Pull the jammed paper out of the paper tray opening. k Put the paper tray back into the machine. If you have removed the jammed paper, you have cleared the paper jam. Note • If the LCD shows a Jam Inside message, check if there is a torn piece of paper inside the machine and drum unit by following the instructions in steps c to f.
Troubleshooting Paper is jammed in the Duplex Tray b Pull the duplex tray completely out of the machine. B If the LCD shows Jam Duplex, follow these steps: a Leave the machine turned on for 10 minutes to cool down.

Troubleshooting If you are having difficulty with your machine B If you think there is a problem with your machine, check the chart below and follow the troubleshooting tips. Most problems can be easily resolved by yourself. If you need additional help, the Brother Solutions Center offers the latest FAQs and troubleshooting tips. Visit us at http://solutions.brother.com/. Check the chart below and follow the troubleshooting tips.
Printing difficulties (continued) Difficulties The machine prints unexpectedly or it prints garbage. Suggestions Press Job Cancel to cancel print jobs. Check the settings in your application to make sure it is set up to work with your machine. Pull out the paper tray and wait until the machine stops printing. Then turn off the machine’s power switch and disconnect from the power for several minutes. The machine prints the first couple of pages correctly, then some pages have text missing.
Troubleshooting Paper handling difficulties Difficulties Suggestions The machine does not feed paper. If there is no paper, load a new stack of paper into the paper tray. The LCD shows No Paper or a Paper Jam message. If there is paper in the paper tray, make sure it is straight. If the paper is curled, you should straighten it. Sometimes it is helpful to remove the paper, turn the stack over and put it back into the paper tray. Reduce the amount of paper in the paper tray, and then try again.
Improving the print quality If you have a print quality problem, make a copy first (put a document on the scanner glass and press Start). If the printout looks good, the problem is probably not the machine. Check the interface cable connections or try printing a different document. If the printout or test page printed from the machine has a quality problem, check the following steps first. And then, if you still have a print quality problem, check the chart below and follow the recommendations.
Troubleshooting Examples of poor print quality Recommendation Make sure that you use paper that meets our specifications. See Acceptable paper and other print media on page 15.
