Possible Problems and Solutions
Your system has some problems. If this problem
occurs, contact your service representative.
• Paper jam occurs. To solve the problem, see
"Clearing Paper Jams" on page 5.6.
• The front cover is open. Close the front cover.
• Paper tray is empty. Load the paper in the Tray.
• The toner cartridge is out of toner. Remove the old
toner cartridge and install a new one. See
"Installing the Toner Cartridge" on page 2.4.
• You pressed the Cancel button while the printer is
receiving data.
• In Manual Feed mode, there is no paper in the tray.
Load paper into the tray.
• If the printer is receiving data, the On Line/
Error LED slowly blinks green.
• If the printer is printing the received data, the On
Line/Error LED blinks green fast.
• If the printer does not have enough memory, the
On Line/Error LED blinks red. In this case,
output quality will be low, or an Internal error
sheet will print. Simplify the page layout and
remove unnecessary graphics from your job.
