Check the paper size setting in the printer driver. You must choose A4 (60 to 105

Check that the paper size setting in the application and in the printer driver are the
same.
Try changing the printer driver setting. The highest resolution needs longer data
processing, sending and printing time.
Try to reduce the print resolution (see Software User's Guide).

Suggestions
If the Touchscreen shows the Paper Jam message and you still have a problem,
see Error and maintenance messages on page 84.
If the paper tray is empty, load a new stack of paper into the paper tray.
If there is paper in the paper tray, make sure it is straight. If the paper is curled,
straighten it. Sometimes it is helpful to remove the paper, turn the stack over and
put it back in the paper tray.
Reduce the amount of paper in the paper tray, and then try again.
Make sure Manual is not selected for Paper Source in the printer driver.
Clean the paper pick-up rollers (see Cleaning the paper pick-up rollers
on page 80).
Use both hands to push one sheet of paper firmly into the manual feed slot until
the top edge of the paper presses against the paper feed rollers. Continue
pressing the paper against the rollers until the machine grabs the paper and pulls
it in further.
Put only one sheet of paper in the manual feed slot.
Make sure Manual is selected for Paper Source in the printer driver.
Load one envelope at a time in the manual feed slot. Your application must be set
to print the envelope size you are using. This is usually done in the Page Setup or
Document Setup menu of your application (see your application's manual for more
information).
