MISFEED REMOVAL
When a misfeed occurs during copying, the message "MISFEED HAS OCCURRED." will appear in the touch panel 
and printing will stop.
● If the misfed paper tears during removal, remove the torn pieces. Take care not to touch the photoconductive 
drum while removing the pieces. Nicks and scratches on the drum will cause dirty copies.
First, locate the misfeed
Misfeed in the RSPF (p.64)
Misfeed in the finisher (p.69)
Misfeed in the machine (p.65, p.66)
Misfeed in the bypass tray (p.65)
Misfeed in the upper paper tray (p.67)
Misfeed in the lower paper tray (p.68)
MISFEED REMOVAL GUIDANCE
Misfeed removal guidance can be displayed by touching the [INFORMATION] key on the touch panel after a 
misfeed has occurred.
If the fax option is installed, all received faxes are stored in memory. The faxes are automatically printed after the 
misfeed is removed.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
MISFEED IN THE RSPF
1
Remove the misfed original.
Check sections A, B, and 
C in the illustration at left 
and remove the misfed 
original.
Section A
Open the document 
feeder cover and 
carefully remove the 
misfed original from the 
document feeder tray.
Close the document 
feeder cover.
Section B
Open the RSPF and 
rotate the release roller in 
the direction of the arrow 
to feed the original out. 
Close the RSPF and then 
carefully remove the 
original.
If the misfed original 
cannot be removed, 
open the document 
transport cover (below), 
and rotate the release 
roller again. 
If a small original (A5 (5-1/2" x 8-1/2"), etc.) is misfed, 
or if an original misfeed occurs in the reversing tray of 
the RSPF, lift the document transport cover knob, open 
the document transport cover, and remove the original.
Section C
Carefully remove the 
misfed original from the 
exit area.
If the misfed original cannot be easily removed from 
the exit area, open the moveable part of the document 
feeder tray and remove the reversing tray, and then 
remove the original.
2
Open and close the RSPF to clear the 
misfeed message from the touch 
panel.
The message can also 
be cleared by opening 
and closing the 
document feeder cover 
or the document 
transport cover.
After the misfeed is removed and the misfeed 
message is cleared, a message will appear indicating 
the number of originals that must be reinserted in the 
RSPF.
3
Reinsert the originals that still must 
be scanned (Including the original that 
was being scanned when the misfeed 
occurred.), and press the [START] 
key(
).
Copying of the remaining originals will resume.
