8. Removing Misfed Paper
When Paper is Jammed
If a paper jam occurs, the Alert indicator on the control panel flashes and the fol-
lowing message appears on the Smart Organizing Monitor dialog box:
"
Paper Misfeed. Open the indicated cover, and then remove any mis-
fed paper. [Front Cover]
Open the front cover, and check the following locations (in the order shown) for
the paper jam.
Important
❒ Misfed paper may be covered in toner. Be careful not to get toner on your
hands or clothes.
❒ Toner on prints made after removing misfed paper may be loose (inadequate-
ly fused). Make a few test prints until smudges no longer appear.
❒ Do not forcefully remove misfed paper, it will tear. Torn pieces remaining in-
side the printer will cause further misfeeds and possibly damage the printer.
❒ Paper jams can cause pages to be lost. Check your print job for missing pages
and reprint any pages that did not print out.
