Phaser 840


Media Jam -- Open exit cover to clear (solution 1)
 
Solution

If the media has partially exited the printer at the exit slot, follow these steps. Otherwise, refer to the solution on Media Jam -- Open exit cover to clear (solution 2).

  1. Using both hands, remove the jammed media.

  2. Remove the entire sheet of paper; any pieces of paper left in the printer may cause more jams.

 

Prevention: Clean the exit rollers
  • Use a pre-soaked alcohol cloth to clean the exit rollers. Use the blue thumbwheel to turn the rollers.

  • Use a dry swab to wipe oil and ink from the blue exit fingers.

Use isopropyl alcohol that is at least 90% pure; alcohol that has additives can damage the printer.


For complete cleaning instructions, refer to the online topic "Cleaning the printer" on the printer's CD-ROM or web site.
