Check for foreign objects

Lift and hold the input tray shield, and then use a flashlight to check for any jammed paper or foreign objects in the paper path. Remove any jammed paper or foreign objects you find.

To avoid tearing any whole sheets of paper, pull the paper with both hands gently.

NOTE: The input tray shield can prevent foreign debris from falling into the paper path and causing serious paper jams. Do not remove the input tray shield.
