When you hit the ‘Print’ button on your Epson ET 4800 printer, an error message appears, showing: “Paper Jam.” That’s a common hitch that most users might have faced at least once. It often occurs due to overfilled trays, incorrect paper sizes, or misaligned sheets.
Resolving the Epson ET-4800 printer paper jam issue can be simple with the proper instructions. But, before you start the troubleshooting, let your printer cool down if it has been in use for a long time. Keep the workspace clean and ensure that there is sufficient lighting and space to allow the trays and panels to open. Bring all the necessary tools, such as a flashlight to clearly inspect the inside of the printer, and tweezers or needle-nose pliers to remove small paper bits.
To troubleshoot the Epson ET 4800 printer paper jam problem, first, you need to power off the printer and, from the back, unplug the cables. Next, check the rear paper feeder for any jammed paper. If you find any stuck paper, remove it carefully without putting force. Once you’ve done that, raise your printer’s control panel upward and open the inner cover. Lift the scanner unit of the printer until it locks into place. Now, peep inside the printer, and if you find any jammed paper, remove it very delicately. Show less
