OKI C111 705 Error: Paper Jam Solution

The OKI C111 error 705 is the standard message for a paper jam detected by the exit sensors. This error is frequent when paper gets damp or is not properly aligned in the tray. If you wonder why does my OKI C111 show 705 error, it is likely that a paper fragment is obstructing the path to the output tray.

Common causes

  • 1Blocked paper exit sensor.
  • 2Paper scraps in the fuser area.
  • 3Worn feed rollers.
  • 4Paper out of specifications (heavy weight).

Solutions

Diagnostic

The exit sensor remains activated because it detects paper where it shouldn't be after the end of a print cycle.

Troubleshooting steps

  1. Open the input tray and remove it completely.
  2. Check the rear side by opening the fuser access door.
  3. Extract any paper fragments carefully to avoid breaking the sensor.
  4. Ensure the rollers are not dirty with adhesive or label residue.

Prevention and maintenance

Avoid loading paper with staples or clips. Always use dry paper stored in a controlled environment. Clean the feed rollers with a slightly damp cloth every 6 months.

When to call a technician

If the sensors are clean and no scraps exist, but the 705 error persists, the exit sensor may be faulty and require replacement.
