4.4.3 FREQUENT PAPER JAMS
If there are frequent paper jams, check SP7504 in section “5. Service Tables”. If
these locations have frequent jams, do the procedures described below.
Symptom 1: Jams when paper is fed from a by-pass tray that is not used
frequently
If the customer does not use the by-pass tray frequently, the rollers can become
worn.
1. Visually check the by-pass tray pick-up, feed, and separation rollers.
2. If these rollers are paler than the rollers in paper trays that are more frequently
used, replace the rollers in the by-pass tray.
NOTE: For more details, see 3. Replacement and Adjustment, “3.11.12 By-
Pass Tray Rollers.”
Symptom 2: Jams with noise from the paper feed unit
1. Remove the paper feed unit. For details, see 3. Replace and Adjustment,
“3.11.8 Paper Feed Unit.”
2. Loosen screw [A].
3. Push the motor [B] toward the tray side, then tighten the screw [A].
4. Loosen screws [C] and [D], let the spring move the unit to the correct position,
then tighten the screws.
