Most paper jams are straightforward mechanical problems. The following illustration shows where paper jams can occur along the paper path:

Clearing Paper Jams in Trays 1 and 2:

  • Grasp both sides of the Bypass Tray, then pull it straight out of the printer

  • Pull out Tray 1 and/or Tray 2 until it stops

  • To remove the tray, lift the front of it slightly, then pull it out of the printer

  • Remove the jammed paper

  • Remove any crumpled paper from the tray and any remaining paper jammed in the printer

  • Insert Tray 1 and/or 2 into the printer, then push it in all the way

  • Insert the Bypass Tray completely into the printer
