TROUBLESHOOTING
CLEARING PAPER JAMS
Provided that you follow the recommendations in this guide on 
use of print media, and you keep the media in good condition 
prior to use, your printer should give years of reliable service. 
However, paper jams occasionally do occur, and this section 
explains how to clear them quickly and simply.
Jams can occur due to paper misfeeding from a paper tray or at 
any point on the paper path through the printer. When a jam 
occurs, the printer immediately stops, and the Alert LED on the 
Status Panel (together with the Status Monitor) informs you of 
the event. If printing multiple pages (or copies), do not assume 
that, having cleared an obvious sheet, others will not also be 
stopped somewhere along the path. These must also be removed 
in order to clear the jam fully and restore normal operation.
1. If a sheet is well advanced out of the top of the printer, 
simply grip it and pull gently to  draw it fully out. If it does 
not remove easily, do not use excessive force. It can be 
removed from the rear later.
2. Press the cover release and open the printer’s top cover 
fully.
WARNING!
If the printer has been powered on, the fuser will be hot. 
This area is clearly labelled. Do not touch.

5.Put the cartridge down gently onto a piece of paper to 
prevent toner from marking your furniture and to avoid 
damaging the green drum surface.
6. Repeat this removal procedur e for each of the remaining 
image drum units. Cover the image drum units to protect 
them from direct light.
7. Look into the printer to check whether any sheets of paper 
are visible on any part of the belt unit.
CAUTION!
The green image drum surface at the base of the 
cartridge is very delicate  and light sensitive. Do not 
touch it and do not expose it  to normal room light for 
more than 5 minutes.

withdraw the sheet.
