Clearing Paper Jams

1. Turn off the printer and open the printer cover.
2. If continuous paper is jammed in the printer, tear off the fresh
supply at the perforation nearest the paper entry slot.
3. Turn the knob on the left side of the printer away from you to
remove the paper in the printer and any remaining pieces of paper.
4. If the paper is stuck where the printer ejects it, gently pull the paper
out of the printer.
Caution:
c
Use the knob on the left side of the printer to clear paper jams only
when the printer is off. Otherwise, you may damage the printer or
change the top-of-form or tear-off position.
5. Close the printer cover and turn on the printer. Make sure the Paper
Out light is not flashing and the Pause light is off.
