Ensure that the paper is loaded evenly in the tray to prevent paper jams. 2. Donāt overload trays Most people often overload trays with paper to avoid having to replenish them often. However, this is ill advised as overloading trays can often lead to paper jams. 3. Clean your printer regularly Dirt accumulation can lead to printer jams. Clean the insides (trays, rollers, etc) of your printer regularly, especially after a printer jam occurs. 4. Donāt use different types of paper in a single tray Avoid mixing different types of paper, no matter itās different size or material in a single tray as your printer may be unable to process different types of paper in a single tray. 5.
