8.1.9 PAPER MISFEED – JAM: TRAY 1 GUIDE PLATE
SERVICE CENTER CALL RESPONSE PROBABLE CAUSE OPERATOR ACTION
SERVICE TECHNICIAN (ST) and/or
NATIONAL RECLAMATION CENTER
(NRC) ACTION
Jam occurred between sensors. (Tray 1)
During paper feed from Tray 1, the trailing edge
sensor detected the trailing edge of the paper but
the registration sensor cannot detect the leading
edge of the paper.
Ask the operator to try the following procedures to
remove and prevent paper transport jams when
feeding from Tray 1. Also, check inside the printer
for paper. If you find paper inside the printer,
remove it, and then press the [Paper Feed] key.
1. Paper that does not meet specifications was
used.
2. Tray set incorrectly.
3. The reverse guide plate is closed.
4. Tray damaged.
1. Use only paper that meets specifications
(including restrictions).
2. Set Tray 1 correctly.
3. Close the reverse guide (lock on both ends).
4. Repair (ST) or replace (NRC).
(1) Check the type and condition of the paper,
then do the following procedures.
Insufficient feed/transport power. Use only paper that meets specifications
(including restrictions).
1-1 If the paper is thick (105 g/m
2
or more), feed
the paper from the bypass tray.
Feed roller slippage. Switch to manual feed with the bypass tray.
1-2 Check to see if paper printed on one side is
being used. Paper printed on one side has a
tendency to double-feed. If the double-
persists, replace with other paper.
Ink between sheets of used paper causes friction
and interferes with paper feed and transport.
Switch to other paper.
1-3 Do not use curled (less than 2 mm) or
wrinkled paper, especially when printing on
both sides of postcards. If the curl or wrinkling
cannot be removed before printing, replace
with new paper.
Curled or wrinkled paper jammed. Try to flatten curls, wrinkles, or replace paper.
1-4 Check the paper and if it is coated, make sure
it meets specifications for coated paper. Use
only coated paper that is recommended for
Feed roller slippage. Switch to recommended paper.
