Paper from Tray 5 can get jammed as it passes over Tray 4. Make certain to open the jam-access plate as shown in step 3 of the following video to look for paper or pieces of paper. It might be necessary to remove one or both of the trays to remove the jammed paper.

Click the Play arrow on the video below to continue.

  1. Open the right and left trays.

    NOTE: It is not necessary to load both trays at the same time.

  2. Remove the paper from the trays and discard any damaged sheets.
  3. Press the green button above the right-side tray (Tray 4) to release the jam-access plate.
  4. Remove any paper found above the jam-access plate.

    NOTE: It might be necessary to remove one or both of the trays to gain access to the jammed paper.

  5. Push up on the jam-access plate to close it.
  6. Load full reams of paper into each side of the tray. The right side holds 1,500 sheets of paper. The left side holds 2,000 sheets of paper.

    NOTE: For best results, load full reams of paper. Avoid dividing reams into smaller sections.

  7. Close the right and left trays.
  8. Open the jam-access door on the right side of the high-capacity tray cabinet.
  9. Remove any jammed paper.
  10. Close the jam-access door on the right side of the high-capacity tray cabinet.

    NOTE: If after clearing the jam the product control panel displays a message that there is no paper in the tray or the tray is over filled, remove the tray and look behind it for any remaining paper.
