Paper is Jammed inside the Machine

Always remove all paper from the paper tray and straighten the stack when you add new paper. This helps prevent multiple sheets of paper from feeding through the machine at one time and prevents paper jams. If the machine's control panel or the Status Monitor indicates that there is a jam inside the machine, follow these steps:

  1. Unplug the machine from the electrical socket.
  2. Wait at least 15 minutes for the product to cool down before you touch the internal parts of the product.
  3. Remove all paper loaded in the tray.
  4. Use both hands to slowly pull out the jammed paper.

  6. Slowly take out the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly. The jammed paper may be pulled out with the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly, or this may release the paper so you can pull it out from inside of the machine.
