Clearing Paper Jams - Samsung ML 1710 - B/W Laser Printer Service Manual

6.3 Clearing Paper Jams

Occasionally, paper can be jammed during a print job. Some of causes include:
• The tray is loaded improperly or overfilled.
• The tray has been pulled out during a print job.
• The front cover has been opened during a print job.
• Paper that does not meet paper specifications has been used.
• Paper that is outside of the supported size range has been used.
If a paper jam occurs, the On Line/Error LED on the control panel lights red. Find and remove the jammed
paper. If it is invisible, look inside the printer.
Do not use a pinset or a sharp metal tool when removing a jam.
The covering of a metal part can be removed which can cause an electric leakage.
6.3.1 In the Paper Exit Area (JAM2)
1) If the paper jams as it exits to the output tray and a
long portion of the paper is visible, pull the paper
straight out.
When you pull the jammed paper, if there is resis-
tance and the paper does not move immediately, stop
pulling. Continue with the next step.
2) Open the rear output tray.
