Cause

Document is too long or is jammed in ADF (Auto Document Feeder).

What to Do

Press the printer's OK button to resolve the error. Then make sure the document you are loading meets the printer's requirements before redoing the operation.

If the document is jammed, remove the jammed document following the instructions below.

Important

• Do not open the document cover if the document is jammed. The jammed document may be torn.

• 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.

• If the original is jammed in the ADF:

  Remove the jammed document following the instructions below.

  1. If printing is in progress, press Stop button.
  2. Turn off printer.

  3. If a multi-page document is loaded, remove any pages other than jammed page from ADF and open document feeder cover.

     

  4. Pull out jammed document from ADF.

     

  5. Close document feeder cover and turn on printer.

     When rescanning the document after clearing the error, rescan it from the first page.

  If you cannot remove the document or the document tears inside the printer, or if the document jam error continues after removing the document, 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.

  Note

  • The document may not feed properly depending on the media type, or your environment, such as when the temperature and humidity are either too high or too low.

    In this case, reduce the number of document pages to approximately half of the loading capacity.

    If the document still jams, use the platen glass instead.

  3. Close document tray and open document feeder cover slowly.
