Sheets of mixed color are loaded in the paper tray.
When printing from a tray containing sheets of mixed color, you can prevent paper misfeeding by
specifying the following settings:
1. Disable skew detection function.
<If custom paper is used>
In [Advanced Settings] for the custom paper, select 1331: [Jam Detection], and then set
[Detect/Ctrl JAM097/098] of [JAM080/097/098/099] to [Off].
<If custom paper is no used>
In the [Machine: Paper Feed/ Output] group on the [Adjustment Settings for Operators]
menu, set 0307: [Detect/Control JAM097/098] to [Off].
The skew detection level is too high.
Decrease the skew detection level.
In [Advanced Settings] for the custom paper, select 1331: [Jam Detection], and then increase the value
in [JAM097] of [JAM097/098 Detect Threshold].
Increase the value to decrease the detection level.
• Disabling the skew detection function will allow skewed printing. If this is not acceptable, contact
your service representative.
Double Feeding
Depending on the cause of the problem, do one of the following:
Have you ruffled the paper sufficiently?
Double feeding may result if the paper is not ruffled properly.
Remove the paper, ruffle it, and reload it.
For details about ruffling the paper, see "Fanning the Paper", Preparation.
The edges of the sheets are rough.
Turn the sheets the other way up or smooth the edges before loading.
Is the Pickup Assist setting enabled?
If the Pickup Assist function operates too much, it may cause double feeding with coated paper.
By disabling the Pickup Assist setting, you can prevent double feeding.
