Duplexer jam detection
The following sensors detect whether or not the print media is present and is feeding normally.
Tray 2 paper sensor (PS101)
Pre-feed sensor (PS102)
Top-of-page sensor (PS103)
Face-down tray paper-full sensor (PS104)
Tray 1 (multipurpose tray) paper sensor (PS105)
Paper-width sensor (PS106)
Fuser-delivery sensor 1 (PS108)
The microprocessor on the dc controller PCA detects a jam by using the sensor to check for media
presence at a specific timing that is stored in the memory.
If the dc controller PCA detects that a jam has occurred, it stops the print operation and an error
message appears on the control-panel display. See
Alphabetical printer messages and Numerical
printer messages.
