Stapler/stacker jam detection
The following sensors detect the presence of media in the stapler/stacker and determine whether the
media is feeding correctly or jamming. For information about the location of these sensors, see
Stacker and stapler/stacker switches and sensors.
■ Paper-inlet sensor (PS1101)
■ Paper-delivery sensor (PS102)
Stapler/stacker feed jam
If the paper-inlet sensor (PS1101) does not detect the leading edge of the media within a specified
period of time after the stacker driver has received the paper-delivery signal, the dc controller PCA
determines that a stapler/stacker feed-delay jam has occurred.
The transport process stops and a 13.XX.YY JAM message appears on the control-panel display.
For more information about jam messages, see
Alphabetical printer messages and Numerical printer
messages.
Stapler/stacker feed stationary jam
If the paper-inlet sensor (PS1101) does not detect the trailing edge of the media within a specified
period of time after the paper inlet-sensor (PS1101) detected the leading edge of the media, the dc
controller PCA determines that a stapler/stacker feed-delay jam has occurred.
The transport process stops and a 13.XX.YY JAM message appears on the control-panel display.
For more information about jam messages, see
Alphabetical printer messages and Numerical printer
messages.
Stapler/stacker delivery jam
If the paper-delivery sensor (PS1102) does not detect the trailing edge of the media within a
specified period of time after the feed motor has been activated following the completion of the
stapling operation, the dc controller PCA determines that a stapler/stacker feed-delay jam has
occurred.
The transport process stops and a 13.XX.YY JAM message appears on the control-panel display.
For more information about jam messages, see
Alphabetical printer messages and Numerical printer
messages.
Stapler/stacker residual media jam
If the paper-inlet sensor (PS1101) or the paper-delivery sensor (PS1102) detects media during the
initial drive period, the dc controller PCA determines that a stapler/stacker-feed delay jam has
occurred.
The transport process stops and a 13.XX.YY JAM message appears on the control-panel display.
For more information about jam messages, see
Alphabetical printer messages and Numerical printer
messages.
NOTE This jam message only appears if the paper-delivery sensor (PS1102) detects media
at the start of the initial drive.
