6. Clearing Misfeeds
This chapter describes what to do when paper or originals misfeed (become jammed inside the machine).
Removing Jammed Paper
This section describes how to locate and remove jammed paper.
• The inside of the machine could be very hot. Do not touch any parts other than specified in this
document when removing misfed paper. Otherwise, it may cause burn injury.
• The fusing section of this machine might be very hot. Caution should be taken when removing misfed
paper.
• Be careful when replacing the roll paper or removing misfed paper by following the operating
instructions properly. Otherwise, an injury may result from the paper cutter inside.
• Keep your hands clear of the paper exit area and the inside of the folding finisher. You can trap
your fingers if you do not.
• If the paper jam indicator lights or begins to flash, do not open the imaging unit or paper source tray
immediately. Wait ten seconds before doing so. If you do not, it will be difficult to remove paper that
is jammed inside the fusing unit.
• When clearing misfeeds, do not turn off the operation switch. If you do, your copy settings will be
lost.
• To prevent misfeeds, do not leave any torn scraps of paper inside the machine.
• Contact your service representative if misfeeds occur frequently.
Locating Jammed Paper
If a misfeed happens, remove the misfed paper or original following the procedures stated on the sticker
inside the folding finisher or front cover.
A misfeed has occurred in the place corresponding to the letter displayed on the control panel.
