Avoid paper jams
To help avoid paper jams, follow these guidelines.
•Remove printed papers from the output tray frequently.
• Prevent curled or wrinkled photo paper by storing all unused photo paper flat in a
resealable bag.
• Ensure that paper loaded in the input tray lays flat and the edges are not bent or torn.
• If you are printing labels, ensure that th e label sheets are no more than two years old.
Labels on older sheets might peel off when the paper is pulled through the product,
and cause paper jams.
• Do not combine different paper types and paper sizes in the input tray; the entire stack
of paper in the input tray must be the same size and type.
