    Issue


    Cause and Solution

    Paper Jams in the Auto Sheet Feeder, the Front Tray, or the Rear Support
    Remove the paper according to the following procedure.
    1. Slowly pull the paper out, from the Auto Sheet Feeder, the Front Tray, or the back of the printer, whichever is easier.
    Feeding from the Auto Sheet Feeder
    Feeding from the Front Tray
    If the paper tears and a piece remains inside the printer, open the Top Cover and remove it. Be careful not to touch the components inside the printer at this time.
    After removing all paper, close the Top Cover, turn the printer off and turn it back on.
    2. Reload the paper into the printer, and press the RESUME/CANCEL button on the printer.
    Set the Paper Guide correctly when printing from the Auto Sheet Feeder. The paper may not feed properly if the Paper Guide is not set correctly.
    If you have turned off the printer in step 1, you will need to try printing again, because this operation cancels any print jobs in progress.
    NOTE

    If you cannot remove the paper or the paper tears inside the printer, or if the paper jam error continues after removing the paper, contact a Canon service representative.
