Paper Handling Problems
This section describes how to prevent paper jams and ensure
that paper feeds properly.
Paper Jam Problems
If paper jams inside the printer frequently, try the following:
❑ Use a higher quality paper that is suitable for ink jet
printers and is not too thin, too thick, or rough. For best
quality, use EPSON special coated and high-quality glossy
papers. See Appendix B for paper specifications.
❑ Fan the stack of paper before you load it.
❑ If you loaded plain paper, try turning the stack over. The
printable side may have been facing down.
❑ Do not load too many sheets in the sheet feeder. You can
load up to 100 sheets of plain paper, 70 sheets of special
coated paper, 10 envelopes, 50 sheets of transparency film,
or 30 sheets of high-quality glossy paper.
Paper Feeding Problems
If paper does not feed properly, the most likely causes are:
❑ Paper is curled or folded. Use flat, undamaged paper.
❑ The paper is of poor quality; use a better quality paper.
❑ The paper is too thin or thick; see Appendix B for paper
size and type specifications.
