Reducing The Frequency Of Paper Jams - Canon iR2025 Reference Manual

Reducing the Frequency of Paper Jams

If paper jams occur frequently, when there is no apparent problem with the machine, either one
of the following two reasons may be the cause. Follow the instructions described below to
reduce the frequency of paper jams.
■ There are torn pieces of paper left inside the machine.
Pulling jammed paper out of the machine by force may leave torn pieces of paper left inside, leading to
frequent paper jams. If paper tears while you are trying to remove jammed paper from the machine,
make sure that you remove the torn pieces as well.
■ The paper-size detecting lever is set incorrectly.
Make sure that the paper-size detecting lever located on the left side of a paper drawer matches the size
of the paper loaded in the paper drawer. If the paper-size detecting lever is set incorrectly, paper jams
may occur more frequently. (See "Adjusting a Paper Drawer to Hold a Different Paper Size," on p. 7-8.)
