Clearing Paper Jams
To avoid damage, always remove misfed media gently, without tearing it. \
Try to remove the paper in the direction 
that the paper would normally feed. Any piece of media left in the print\
er, whether large or small, can obstruct the 
media path and cause further misfeeds. Do not reload media that has misf\
ed.
WARNING:
If you accidentally get toner on your clothes, lightly dust them off as \
best as you can. If some toner remains on 
your clothes, use cool, not hot water, to rinse the toner off. If toner \
gets on your skin, wash it off with cool water 
and a mild soap. If you get toner in your eyes, wash it out immediately \
with cool water and consult a doctor.
Note:
The printed side of jammed pages may smudge, and the toner may stick to \
your hands. Do not touch the 
printed side of the media when removing it. Make sure not to spill any t\
oner insidethe printer.
When a jam occurs, the control panel touch screen displays an animated g\
raphic showing the location of the jam.
