Solutions

Quick diagnosis

If the printer tries to start and stops immediately with message P-02, check the interior of the input tray. Often, an incorrectly loaded sheet or a bent corner triggers the jam sensor.

Step-by-step solution

  1. Turn off the unit and remove the paper tray.
  2. Open the top cover and take out the toner cartridge.
  3. Extract any piece of paper, even if very small.
  4. Close everything and press the resume button on the main panel.

Prevention and maintenance

Do not fill the tray above the maximum limit mark. Cleaning pick-up rollers every 6 months with a dry cloth significantly extends the life of loading mechanisms.

When to call a technician

If after clearing the paper path the machine continues to report the error without physical paper present, the presence sensor may be broken.
