CAUTION
a. Try to remove jammed paper from inside the machine first, then from the paper feeder if necessary.
b. Check the following if you experience repeated paper jams:
- Fan and tap the paper stack on a flat surface before loading it in the machine.
- Check that the paper you are using meets the requirements for use.
- Make sure you have removed any scraps of paper from inside the machine.
Inside the Machine 1. Close the paper delivery tray extension (A), and then the paper delivery tray (B) itself.
CAUTION
Do not close the paper delivery tray without folding the extension first.
2. Open the cartridge cover by the notch (A).
CAUTION
Always open the cartridge cover first before removing jammed paper inside the machine.
3. Remove the cartridge.
NOTE
a. Always hold the cartridge by its handle.
b. To avoid exposing the cartridge to light, place it in its protective bag or wrap it in a thick cloth.
4. Carefully pull jammed paper out of the machine.
CAUTION
a. Do not touch the fixing assembly (A) as it becomes very hot during use.
b. Do not touch the pins (B) or the transfer roller (C) as this can damage the machine.

c. If you tear the paper, remove any torn pieces to avoid further jams.
