Page 46
3.1To prevent a paper jam
3Clearing Paper Jam and Staple Jam
3.1To prevent a paper jam
To prevent a paper jam, check the following points.
-Do the paper match the specifications of this machine?
-Is the paper (in particular, the feeding side) even?
-Is this machine installed on a stable and horizontal location that has a hard and even surface?
-Is the paper kept away from humid conditions?
-Do you always align the paper guide to the paper size after loading paper into a tray? (If the paper guide
is not aligned to the paper size, it may reduce printing quality, cause a paper jam, or damage the machine.)
-Is the paper loaded into a tray with the required side facing upward? (The arrow indicating the print side
of paper may be shown on the packing label of paper.)
To prevent a paper jam, avoid the following actions.
-Do not load paper that is folded, creased, embossed, or bent into a tray.
-Do not load jammed paper into a tray more than once.
-Do not load a stack of paper into a tray. (When a stack of paper is fed, remove it from the tray once,
then flip through the paper to separate sheets.)
-Do not load paper of different types, sizes, or weights together into a tray.
-Do not load a quantity of paper that exceeds the maximum capacity of the paper tray in the tray.
-Do not leave a quantity of paper that exceeds the maximum capacity of the paper tray. (Up to 250
sheets can be output from the output tray. If 250 or more sheets are left in the tray, it will cause a paper
jam.)

4.3.3When the bit count does not match between the server and the client
If the print server is Windows Server 2008/Server 2008 R2/Server 2012/Server 2012 R2 and its OS bit count
does not match that of the client computer, an additional driver may not be able to be installed normally on
the print server.
To solve this problem, specify the setup information file (ntprint.inf) of the operating system with a different
bit number when installing the additional driver on the print server.
The following describes how to install the additional driver by specifying a setup information file on a different
computer from that of the print server.
-Before starting this procedure, prepare to configure a different client computer from that of the print
server and install the operating system that has a bit number different from that of the print server.
-On the print server side, the system drive of the client computer is assigned as the network drive. Con-
figure the setting to share the drive to be assigned in advance.
This example shows the operation when installing Windows Server 2008 (32-bit version) on the print server
and Windows Vista (64-bit version) on the client computer.
1Configure the setting to share the drive (ordinarily, drive C) where the client computer's operating sys-
tem is installed.
2On the print server, assign the drive (example: "C") of the client computer, which is shared in Step 1,
as the network drive (example: "z").
3Install the 32-bit operating system driver on the print server.
4Open the Properties screen in the driver installed.
5Select the [Sharing] tab, and select the [Share this printer] check box.
6Click [Additional Drivers].
The Additional Drivers page appears.
7Select the [x64] check box in the [Processor] column, and click [OK].
8Specify the folder that contains the 64-bit operating system driver.
This displays a page to request a setup information file.

9Click [Browse], and specify the setup information file [ntprint.inf] on the client computer to which the

% Specify the following file.
% The setup information file may be stored at a different location depending on your client computer.
10 Click [Open].
Installation starts.

[z:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\ntprint.inf_xxx]
In the path above, "z" represents the assigned network drive. "_xxx" at the end of this path varies
depending on the driver version.
If folder [amd64] resides in the same hierarchy as that of [ntprint.inf], specify a setup information file
for 64-bit operating system under that folder. To additionally install a 32-bit operating system driver,
specify a setup information file under folder [i386] that is in the same hierarchy as that of [ntprint.inf].
