Check that the paper:
Isn't curled or creased.
Isn't too thick or thin (Appendix B).
Isn't too old (see Chapter 3 or your paper packaging).
Isn't jammed inside the printer. (If the Paper Out light is
flashing, paper is jammed. See page 6-16.)
Then reload the paper as described in Chapter 3, making sure that:
The paper-release lever is set forward to the continuous paper
position.
The paper stack is close enough to the printer, but has room in
front and back to load and eject without obstruction.
The paper's holes are aligned on the sprockets, the sprockets
are locked and their covers are closed, and the paper is not too
slack.
No single sheet paper is in the paper path. (Press Load/Eject to
eject any sheets.)
Before printing, check that:
The paper source and paper size are set correctly in your
application or printer software.)
The skip over perforation, auto tear-off, and banner modes are
set correctly for your media (see Appendix B).
Then do this
Make sure the paper isn't too thin (see the paper specifications
in Appendix B).
Fan the edges of the stack of paper to separate the sheets.
Reload the paper as described in Chapter 3, making sure to
load only the amount of paper directed for your media and
feeder.
If more copies of a page or document are printing than you
expected, check that the Copies settings in both the printer
software and your application program are set to 1. See
Chapters 1 and 2 for information.
