Paper Feeding Problems

If you have problems feeding paper, try these solutions:

• If paper does not feed for printing, remove it from the rear feed slot or cassette. Reload it against the right side, then adjust the edge guides. Make sure the paper stack is not above the tab on the edge guides inside the cassette.
• If multiple pages feed at once, remove the paper, fan the edges to separate the sheets, and reload it.
• Do not load more than the recommended number of sheets.
• If paper jams when you print on both sides of the paper, try loading fewer sheets.
• For best results, follow these guidelines:
  • Use new, smooth, high-quality paper that is not curled, creased, old, too thin, or too thick.
  • Load paper in the cassette printable side down.
  • Do not load binder paper with holes in the cassette.
  • Follow any special loading instructions that came with the paper.
