How can I clear the "PAPER JAM" error message?

First, unplug the machine for safety and disconnect the telephone line. Next, follow these instructions based on where the paper jam is located.

 


Do not force the jammed paper from the paper tray because you may damage the FAX/MFC and cause toner to scatter on the next printed pages. After you have used the FAX/MFC, some internal parts of the machine are extremely HOT! When you open the top cover of the FAX/MFC, never touch the shaded parts shown in the following diagram.
