Curled or wrinkled paper is more likely to jam.

The Dell V305 is a multifunction inkjet printer and scanner. Paper jams can occur when the paper is being loaded into the printer for a print job, when the paper is being printed on, or when the paper is being fed out to the output tray. It is important to follow the proper steps when clearing paper jams so the printer is not damaged and torn paper is not trapped inside the unit.

Instructions

    • 1

      Grasp the paper firmly and gently pull it straight out.

    • 2

      Lift the scanner base unit if the paper is not visible or cannot be reached.

    • 3

      Pull the paper out of the printer carefully. Turn the printer off if the paper will not come out. Pull the paper out with the printer turned off.

    • 4

      Close the scanner base unit. Turn the printer back on and re-send the print job to the printer.

Tips & Warnings

  • To prevent paper jams, make sure paper is properly loaded in the input tray. Avoid using torn, wrinkled or curled paper.
