							Clear jams from the output areas
Use these procedures to clear jams that occur in the rear output bin or in the optional stacker, stapler/
stacker, or 5-bin mailbox.
Clear jams from the rear output bin
1.Open the rear output bin.
NOTE:If most of the paper is still inside the product, it might be easier to remove it through the
top-cover area. See 
Clear jams from the top-cover and print-cartridge areas on page 162.
2.Grasp both sides of the paper, and slowly pull the paper out of the product. Loose toner might be
on the sheet. Be careful not to spill it on yourself or into the product.
NOTE:If the jammed paper is difficult to remove, try opening the top cover all the way to release
pressure on the paper. If the sheet has torn, or if you still cannot remove it, see 
Clear jams from
the fuser area on page 170.

							3.Close the rear output bin.
4.If a jam message persists, a sheet is still jammed in the product. Look for the jam in another location.
See 
Jam locations on page 161.
Clear jams from the optional stacker or stapler/stacker
Paper jams can occur in the optional stacker or the optional stapler/stacker. Staple jams can occur only
in the optional stapler/stacker.
Clear paper jams from the optional stacker or stapler/stacker
1.At the back of the product, open the door on the stacker or stapler/stacker, and open the rear output
bin.
2.Carefully remove any jammed paper.
176 Chapter 10   Solve problems ENWW
 
						

							3.Close the door on the stacker or stapler/stacker, and close the rear output bin.
4.If a jam message persists, a sheet is still jammed. Look for it in another location. Check the front
of the accessory and carefully remove any jammed paper. See 
Jam locations on page 161.
NOTE:The output bin must be pushed down into the lowest position for printing to continue.
Clear staple jams from the optional stapler/stacker
NOTE:Clear staple jams when the message JAM IN STAPLER appears on the product control-panel
display.
1.On the right side of the stapler/stacker, turn the stapler unit toward the front of the product until the
unit clicks into the open position. Pull outward on the blue staple cartridge to remove it.
2.Rotate the green cover on the end of the staple cartridge upward, and remove the jammed staple.
ENWWJams 177
 
						

							3.Insert the staple cartridge into the stapler unit, and rotate the stapler unit toward the rear of the
product until the unit snaps into place.
The stapler needs to reload after clearing a staple jam, so the first few documents might not be stapled.
If a print job is sent and the stapler is jammed or is out of staples, the job will still print as long as the
path to the stacker bin is not blocked.
Clear jams from the optional 5-bin mailbox
1.Remove any paper that is in the output bins.
2.On the back of the 5-bin mailbox, open the jam-access door.
