4.5 Double Feeding
Is the paper feed roller covered with paper dust?
Paper dust may decrease the traction of the paper feed roller and result in
double feeding due to paper slippage or insufficient separation.
Cleaning the paper feed roller will restore traction and so prevent double feeding.
For details about cleaning the paper feed roller of each of the machine's trays
(Trays 1 and 2) see the Replacement Guide.
For details about cleaning the paper feed roller of the multi bypass tray (Tray 6),
see p.116 "Cleaning the Paper Feed Path in the Multi Bypass Tray (Tray 6)".
For details about cleaning the paper feed roller of the interposer, see p.

"
Cleaning the Paper Feed Rollers and Paper Feed Belt in the Interposer".
Have you ruffled the paper sufficiently?
Double feeding may result if the paper is not ruffled properly.
Remove the paper, ruffle it, and reload it.
For details about ruffling the paper, see "Fanning the Paper", About This
Machine.
Is the Pickup Assist setting enabled?
If the Pickup Assist function operates too much, it may cause double feeding with
coated paper.
By disabling the Pickup Assist setting, you can prevent double feeding.
