Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

This error stops the print process before it begins. Look into the rear tray; if there's no paper, or the paper isn't moving despite hearing the motor, the rollers are likely slipping.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Remove all paper from the tray.
  2. Examine the rollers for any accumulated paper dust.
  3. Clean the rollers with a soft, lint-free damp cloth.
  4. Align the paper guides properly against the stack.
  5. Restart to initiate a new feed cycle.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Only use recommended paper weight. Clean the rollers every few months and avoid overloading the tray to maintain constant tension.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the rollers are clean and there are no obstructions, the internal paper feed sensor might have failed, necessitating service.
