Cause

Paper is jammed in paper output slot or in rear tray.

What to Do

If the paper is jammed in the paper output slot or in the rear tray, remove the jammed paper from the paper output slot or from the rear tray following the instructions below.

• Watch the movie (If you can see the jammed paper at the paper output slot)

• Watch the movie (If you can see the jammed paper at the rear tray)

Important

• The printer cannot be turned off while it is sending or receiving a fax, or when the received fax or the unsent fax is stored in the printer's memory.

  Turn off the printer after making sure it has completed sending or receiving all the faxes. Do not unplug when turning off the printer.

  If you unplug the power cord, all the faxes stored in the printer's memory are deleted.

1. Slowly pull out paper, either from paper output slot or from rear tray, whichever is easier.

   Hold the paper with both hands, and pull it out slowly so as not to tear it.

   

   Note

   • If you cannot pull out the paper, turn the printer back on without pulling forcibly. The paper may be ejected automatically.
   • If paper becomes jammed during printing and you need to turn off the printer to remove it, press the Stop button to stop the printing before you turn off the printer.

   • If the paper tears and you cannot remove the jammed paper from the paper output slot or the rear tray, remove the paper from inside the printer.

2. Reload paper and press printer's OK button.

   The printer resumes printing. Reprint the page you were printing if it was not printed properly due to the paper jam.

   If you turned off the printer in step 1, the print data that was sent to the printer is erased. Redo the printing.

   Note

   • When reloading the paper, make sure you are using suitable paper and loading it correctly.
   • We recommend using paper sizes other than A5 to print documents with photos or graphics. A5 paper may curl and jam as it leaves the printer.

If the measures above do not solve the problem, contact your nearest Canon service center to request a repair.

Important

• Do not tilt the printer when moving it since the ink may leak out.
• When transporting the printer for repairing it, see Repairing Your Printer.
