However, it is not unusual to experience anoccasional paper jam. Paper jams occur most often when:• The throughput stock does not meet specification. See“Paper Specifications” (page 2-6).• The paper stock is in poor condition.• The paper stock has been improperly loaded into thepaper trays. See “Loading Paper” (page 2-19).• The printer needs cleaning. See “Cleaning the Printer”(page 6-14).• Printer parts have worn and need to be replaced.When first powered ON, the printer detects any jammedpaper. The movement of paper through the printer isconstantly being monitored by the printer’s controllers.When the printer detects a misfeed or a paper jam, theprinting process is halted, the chime alarm is sounded (ifenabled), and a Control Panel message is displayed.After the paper jam has been cleared, the printer will resumeoperation to complete the print job.Paper JamsWUG-CH07 Page 27 Black,Red,Cyan Wednesday, January 25, 1995 3:45 PM
