Jam Inside

To clear paper jams, please follow the steps below.


Please confirm that you have installed all toner cartridges and drum units in the machine. Failure to install these items or improper installation may cause a paper jam in the machine. 

 

If the error message remains, open and close the top cover and fuser cover firmly to reset the machine.

 

  1. Turn off the machine's power switch. Unplug the telephone line cord first (if applicable), disconnect all cables and then unplug the power cord from the AC power outlet (electrical socket). Leave the machine turned off for 10 minutes to cool down.

    HOT SURFACE
    After you have just used the machine , some internal parts of the machine will be extremely hot. Wait at least 10 minutes for the machine to cool down before continuing to the next step.

     

    When the scanner is open, you cannot open the top cover.

     

  3. Take out the drum unit and toner cartridge assemblies. Repeat this for all the drum unit and toner cartridge assemblies.





    • We recommend that you place the drum unit and toner cartridge assemblies on a clean, flat surface with a sheet of disposable paper or cloth underneath it in case you accidentally spill or scatter toner.
    • Handle the toner cartridge carefully. If toner scatters on your hands or clothes, wipe or wash it off with cold water at once.
