Remove the jammed paper depending on the paper source.



 

If the Paper Loaded in the Top Feed Is Jammed
 

1. Slowly pull out paper, either from paper output slot or from top feed, whichever is easier.

Hold the paper with your hands and pull the paper out slowly not to tear it.


 

Note If you cannot pull out the paper, turn the printer back on. The paper may be ejected automatically.   If paper becomes jammed during printing and you need to turn off the printer to remove it, press the Stop button to stop the printing before you turn off the printer.   If the paper tears and you cannot remove the jammed paper from the paper output slot or the top feed, remove the paper from inside the printer.

2. Reload paper and press the printer's OK button.

The printer resumes printing. Reprint the page you were printing if it was not printed properly due to the paper jam.

If you turned off the printer in step 1, the print data that was sent to the printer is erased. Redo the printing.
 

Note When reloading the paper, make sure you are using suitable paper and loading it correctly.   We recommend using paper sizes other than A5 to print documents with photos or graphics.   A5 paper may curl and jam as it leaves the printer.
