Preventing and Clearing Paper Jams
To reduce the occurrence of paper jams, follow the guidelines and instructions in Printing 
Basics on page 4-1. It includes information about supported paper and media, guides for 
usage, and instructions for properly loading paper in the trays.
Caution: When removing jammed paper, make sure that no pieces of torn paper are left in the 
printer. If a sheet of paper is wrapped around the heat roller, or when clearing a jammed paper 
that is difficult or impossible to see, do not try to remove it by yourself. Turn off the printer 
immediately, and refer to the Xerox Support website, 
www.xerox.com/office/6130support.
Warning: The fuser and the surrounding area are hot and can cause burns.
