Preventing Media Jams
Make sure that...
Media matches the printer specifications.
Media is flat, especially on the leading edge.
The printer is on a hard, flat, level surface.
You store media in a dry location away from moisture and humidity.
You remove transparencies from the output tray immediately to avoid static
buildup.
You always adjust the media guides in Tray 1
after
inserting the media
(a
guide that is not properly adjusted can cause poor print quality, media jams,
or printer damage).
You load the media (for single-sided pages) printing-side up in Tray 1 or 2
(many manufacturers place an arrow on the end of the wrapper to indicate
the printing side).
Avoid...
Media that is folded, wrinkled, or excessively curled.
Double feeding
(remove the media and fan the sheets—they may be sticking
together).
Fanning transparencies since this causes static.
Loading more than one type/size/weight of media in a tray at the same time.
Overfilling the media
input
trays.
Allowing the
output
tray to overfill
(the face-down output tray has a
200-sheet capacity—jamming may occur if you allow media to accumulate
more than 200 sheets at a time).
Allowing the
output
tray to fill with more than a few transparencies.
