6.1 Clearing Paper Jams 135
Paper Jams in the Trays 1 - 4
1. If paper is loaded in the bypass tray, 
remove the paper and close the bypass 
tray cover.
Important
• When closing the bypass tray cover, be careful not to 
get your fingers caught between (the left or right edge 
of) the cover and the printer.
2. Gently pull the tray out of the printer.
If sheet feeders are installed, check each 
tray, starting from the bottom one to the top 
one.
Important
• Paper is fed into the printer via the front side of the 
tray. If paper is jammed in this area, you may not be 
able to pull out the tray unless you remove the trays 
below it.
• Do not pull out more than one tray at a time.
3. Remove the jammed paper and any paper 
that is wrinkled.
4. If paper is jammed in the printer, gently 
remove the paper carefully without tearing.
5. Push up the lever A and open the front 
cover.
Important
• Open the front cover even when there is no jammed 
paper in the printer. The error will not clear unless you 
open and close the front cover.
