Service Manual
Action
If the exit sensor flag is not resting within the
paper exit sensor during POST, the printer
displays a paper jam message. Make sure the
flag is operating freely and is correctly installed.
Make sure the input paper feed sensors are
working properly. A stuck or incorrectly installed
sensor causes this error.
Action
Check the ACM clutch for wear. The solenoid
interacts with the clutch to control the motion of
the pick tires.
If the ratchet teeth of the ACM clutch assembly
are worn or broken, the solenoid may not stop
the ACM from rotating. Replace the ACM clutch
assembly if necessary.
Check the manual feed clutch for the same
damage.
