Paper curl and paper jams
Too much curl in the paper stock can cause paper jams. You can
adjust the decurler lever to correct most of these problems. Refer to
the paper curl chart at the end of this chapter (figure 12-45) to
determine the amount of curl in the paper stock.
Measuring the paper curl To measure the paper curl:
Step 1. Print five one-sided (simplex) 8.5 by 11 inch or A4 sheets.
Step 2. Measure the amount of curl in the prints by holding the five prints in
the top center of the short edge (see figure 12-5).
Keep the image toward you.

Step 3. Place the bottom edge of the prints over the paper curl measurement
chart located at the end of this chapter.
• If the print curl on the printed paper stock measures between +2
and -2, do not change the decurler setting.
• If the curl is between +2 and +3, or -3 and -4, use the following
procedure to adjust the decurler lever.
