NOTE |
Even if you check the paper jam location, paper may not actually be jammed. In such a case, check all locations according to the instructions on the touch panel display. The touch panel display indicating a paper jam is continuously displayed until the paper jam issue has been rectified completely. If you press <Close> on the touch panel display indicating a paper jam, operation and setting may continue without immediate correction of the paper jam. If a paper jam occurs during printing while the stapler is set for operation, do not remove paper in the places other than the locations displayed on the touch panel display. For example, if a paper jam occurs in the main unit, you do not need to remove paper from the finisher where a paper jam has not occurred. If a paper jam in the main unit is cleared, paper inside the finisher will be stapled continuously. |
If Paper Jams Repeatedly
When paper jams occur repeatedly in spite of no malfunctions in the main unit or optional devices, the following causes are suspected.
Jammed paper fragments remain in the machine
If you forcibly remove the jammed paper, torn scraps of paper may remain in the main unit or optional devices. If paper tears, check that there are no scraps of paper inside and try to remove all of the scraps.
