Tips for preventing paper jams

Review these tips to help prevent recurring paper jams.

• Do not put any objects (such as paper clips, coins, or rubber bands) on top of the printer that could potentially fall inside the input tray.

• Do not print on paper with paper clips or staples attached.

• Make sure that the paper is loaded correctly in the input tray.

  • Before loading paper in the tray, hold the stack of paper, and then tap the bottom edge on a flat surface so that the stack is even on all sides.

  • Make sure that the width adjusters on the tray are correctly positioned before inserting paper into the printer.

    caution:

    Do not force paper into the tray.

  • Do not load too much paper in the input tray. Consult the documentation that came with your printer to find the recommended amount of paper for your printer.

  • Add paper to the input tray only when the printer is not printing.

• Make sure that the printer supports the paper type. See the documentation that came with your printer for more information.

• Do not use paper or envelopes that are bent, torn, dusty, damp, wrinkled, curled, or that do not lie flat.

• Use only one type of paper at a time. Do not mix different types, weights, or sizes of paper.

• Do not use paper that is too thin, too thick, or too glossy for the printer.

• Make sure that the paper rollers are not damaged or dirty.

• Make sure that the cartridge access door is securely closed.

• Make sure that there is nothing blocking the paper path.
