Clearing Jammed Paper
If paper becomes jammed, the Print light turns off and the red Error light turns on. 
The LCD panel and EPSON Status Monitor 3 display error messages that indicate 
the cover area affecting the paper jam. See the corresponding sections here for the 
cover letter indicated in the error messages.

■Do not remove jammed paper by force. Torn paper can be difficult to remove and 
may cause other paper jams. Pull it gently to avoid tearing.
■Always remove jammed paper with both hands to avoid tearing it.
■If jammed paper remains in the product, or if it is jammed in an area not 
mentioned in this section, contact Epson as described on page 128. 
■Make sure you load the same paper type as the selected Paper Type setting in the 
printer driver.
