Jam LEDs

The vertical transport has jam LEDs to indicate where jams occur, which prevents jammed paper from being torn when you handle it.

Jam LED Layout

Jam Sensors and Jam LEDs

• When a jam (including a jam detected during initialization) occurs, a jam sensor detects it, and then the corresponding LED blinks.
• Jam LEDs blink when the front door is open in a jam condition.
• When multiple LEDs blink to indicate jam locations, they blink at the same time.
• Jam sensors always monitor even when you are handling a jam (because the sheet following a jammed sheet moves when you rotate a jam removal knob).
• The LED stops blinking two seconds after a jam sensor switches from on to off. If the sensor turns on again within the two seconds, the LED keeps blinking.
• All of the LEDs turn off when the front door is closed. But if a jam is detected during initialization, a jam LED blinks when the front door opens.
