If the Power LED and the Warning LED continue to blink and you repeatedly experience paper jams, do the following:

  3. Re-connect the power cord.

    The paper you placed in the manual feed slot will be fed through the machine and ejected. If the thick paper is pushing any jammed paper out, remove the jammed paper.
