The printer is designed to function with minimal paper jams using Xerox-supported paper. Other
paper types can cause jams. If supported paper is jamming frequently in one area, clean that area of
the paper path.
The following can cause paper jams:
• Selecting the incorrect paper type in the print driver
• Using damaged paper
• Using unsupported paper
• Loading paper incorrectly
• Overfilling the tray
• Adjusting the paper guides improperly
Most jams can be prevented by following a simple set of rules:
• Use only supported paper. For more information, refer to
• Follow proper paper handling and loading techniques.
• Always use clean, undamaged paper.
• Avoid paper that is curled, torn, moist, creased, or folded.
• To separate the sheets before loading into the tray, fan the paper.
• Do not load paper above the maximum fill line.
• After loading paper in the trays, adjust the paper guides in all trays. A guide that is not properly
adjusted can cause poor print quality, misfeeds, skewed prints, and printer damage.
• After loading paper in the trays, at the control panel, select the correct paper type and size.
• Before printing, select the correct paper type and size in the print driver.
• Store paper in a dry location.
The following can cause paper jams:
• Polyester-coated paper that is designed especially for inkjet printers
• Paper that is folded, wrinkled, or excessively curled
• Loading more than one type, size, or weight of paper in a tray at the same time
• Loading paper above the maximum fill line in the paper tray
• Allowing the output tray to become overfilled
