Clearing Paper Jams

Follow these steps to clear a paper jam:
1. Turn off the printer.
2. Open the printer cover.
3. If continuous paper is jammed in the printer, tear off the fresh
supply at the perforation nearest the paper entry slot.
4. Turn the knob on the left side of the printer away from you to
remove the paper in the printer. Remove any remaining pieces
of paper.
If the paper is stuck where the printer ejects it, gently pull the
paper out of the printer.
c
Caution:
Use the knob on the left side of the printer to clear paper jams
only when the printer is off. Otherwise, you may damage the
printer or change the top-of-form or tear-off position.
5. Close the printer cover and turn on the printer. Make sure the
Paper Out light is not flashing and the Pause light is off.
