Most paper jams can be avoided by correctly loading paper and specialty media in the printer. The following hints can help prevent paper jams:

• Do not load wrinkled, cre ased, or damp media.

• Nev er mix media types within a tray.

• Flex, fan, and straight en the media stack before loading it.

Note: Make sure the media stack is below the maximum media fill indicators on the 250-sheet tray before

pushing the tr ay into the printer.

• Push all trays snugly into the print er after loading them.

• Make sure paper guides are positioned be fore loading the paper or specialty media.

• Do not remov e tr ays while a job is printing. Wait for a Load Paper light sequence .

• Before loading transparencies, fan the stack to prevent sheets from sticking together.

• Do not use envelopes that: – Have exces si ve curl

– Are stuck together – Are damaged in any way – Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossments – Have metal clasps , string ties, or metal folding bars – Have post a ge sta m p s attac hed – Have any exposed adhesive when the fl ap is i n the sealed position

Use only recommended media. Refer to the Card Stock & Label Guide available on the Lexmark Web site at www .l exmark.com for more information about whi ch m edia provides optimum results for the curr ent printing environment.

They will lead you to solutions or service che cks, includi ng use of various tests.

Sympto m tables

If your machine compl etes the “Power–On Self Test (POST) sequence” on page 2-1 without an error and you have a symptom, go to “ M essages and error codes” on page 2-5. Locate your symptom, and take the appropriate action.
