Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

The error 11 is very common and easy to identify. If the panel displays 'Paper Jam' or '11', it is an absolute confirmation that there is a physical obstruction in the internal paper path.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Open trays: Open the front door and carefully remove the toner/drum unit.
  2. Remove paper: Identify the jammed paper and pull it gently along the feed direction.
  3. Internal check: Ensure no small fragments of torn paper are left inside.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Avoid using wrinkled paper or paper weights not supported by the equipment. Regular cleaning of the feed rollers with a damp cloth prevents slippage. Do not load more sheets than the input tray allows to prevent bending.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If after cleaning the entire paper path and removing every fragment the error 11 persists, the paper optical sensors might be dirty or damaged.
