The printer is on a hard, flat, level surface

you're printing on envelopes, labels, thick
stock, or transparencies
You store media in a dry location away from
moisture and humidity
You always adjust the media width regula-
tion guides in the multipurpose tray after
inserting the media ( a guide that is not
properly adjusted can cause poor print
quality, paper jams, or printer damage)
Also make sure that you remove transparencies from the output tray immediately to avoid
static buildup, and that you load the media (for single-sided pages) printing-side up in the
upper or optional trays or printing-side down in the multipurpose tray.
Many manufacturers place an arrow on the end of the wrapper to indicate the printing
side.

Automatic Jam Recovery

The magicolor 2200 DeskLaser provides automatic jam recovery (when enabled through
the Engine/Error Recovery menu). After you remove any jammed media, printing
automatically resumes from the page the printer stopped at when the jam occurred.
For automatic jam recovery to work, it is necessary to leave the printer turned on when
you remove the jammed media.
