Troubleshooting
Solution
The paper may be old or creased. Discard
it and load new, clean sheets of paper.
The left and right paper guides may be
too far apart. Adjust the paper guides to
the width of the paper.
There may be too much outgoing paper.
Never let more than 80 sheets of outgoing
paper accumulate while printing.
The weight of your paper may be too
heavy or too light for the cut sheet feeder.
Refer to the specifications in Chapter 8
and make sure that your paper is the
proper size and quality.
The single sheet may have been inserted
in the wrong place. Check it and try
again. See Chapter 5.
Paper may feed from the bin if you try to
insert several single sheets. To insert
several single sheets, pull the paper set
lever forward, insert the sheets, and then
pull the paper set lever back to its original
position.
