## **1. Introduction to Paper Jam Errors**

A **paper jam error** occurs when paper becomes stuck or improperly fed within the printer’s paper path. In the Epson Workforce 600, this can happen at multiple locations — the **input tray**, **rear feed**, **output slot**, or even inside the **ADF (Automatic Document Feeder)**.

In many cases, the paper jam error may persist **even after the jammed sheet is removed**. This happens due to **sensor misalignment**, **roller debris**, or **firmware issues**. Understanding the cause and applying the correct fix ensures smooth printing and prevents repeated jams.

If your printer repeatedly shows **“Paper Jam”**, follow the guide below carefully. And if at any point the problem persists, you can reach Epson-certified experts at **1-866-203-7571** for personalized support.

## **2. Common Causes of Paper Jam in Epson Workforce 600**

Before jumping into troubleshooting, it’s important to identify **what might be causing the paper jam**. Below are the most frequent causes:

### **A. Incorrect Paper Loading**

* Overfilling the paper tray or inserting paper at an angle can cause a jam.
* Using curled, wrinkled, or damp paper may lead to misfeeds.

### **B. Dirty or Worn Rollers**

* Over time, the printer’s paper feed rollers accumulate dust and ink residue.
* Dirty rollers fail to grip paper properly, leading to feeding issues or jams.

### **C. Obstructions Inside the Printer**

* Small torn pieces of paper or foreign objects (clips, labels, staples) inside the printer path can trigger jam errors.

### **D. Incorrect Paper Size or Type**

* Using incompatible paper types (like thick cardstock or glossy paper in a plain tray) may cause paper jams.

### **E. Software or Firmware Glitches**

* Sometimes, the printer mistakenly detects a jam even when none exists, due to firmware bugs or sensor errors.

### **F. Improper Maintenance**

* Skipping periodic cleaning or not using the printer regularly can lead to debris buildup.

Knowing these root causes helps apply the most effective fix for your Epson Workforce 600.

## **3. Identifying the Type of Paper Jam**

The Epson Workforce 600 can display paper jams in several areas. Here’s how to identify where the jam is located:

| **Location** | **Symptoms** |
| ----------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Input Tray (Bottom)** | Paper doesn’t feed, or multiple sheets pulled together. |
| **Rear Access Door** | Printer stops mid-print, and jam message appears. |
| **Output Area** | Paper crumples or stops before fully exiting. |
| **Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)** | Jam occurs while scanning or copying multiple pages. |
| **Internal Roller Path** | Error persists even after clearing all visible paper. |

## **4. Step-by-Step Solution for Paper Jam Error**

Follow these systematic steps to clear and fix any paper jam in your Epson Workforce 600 printer.

***Epson Printer Support at 1-866-203-7571**

### **Step 1: Power Off and Unplug the Printer**

1. Turn off your Epson Workforce 600 using the **Power** button.
2. Unplug the printer from the power source.
3. Wait at least **60 seconds** to let internal components reset.
4. Remove all paper from input and output trays.

This prevents further damage and allows safe inspection of internal parts.

***Epson Printer Support at 1-866-203-7571**

### **Step 2: Check the Rear Paper Feed**

The rear paper feed is a common place for jams.

1. Turn the printer around and open the **rear access door**.
2. Gently pull out any jammed sheets. Avoid tearing the paper.
3. Check for small torn pieces left inside.
4. Use a flashlight to inspect the rollers and ensure they’re clean.
5. If needed, use a lint-free cloth lightly dampened with distilled water to clean the rollers.
6. Allow the rollers to dry completely before reassembling.

If the jam persists, move on to the next area.

### **Step 3: Remove Jammed Paper from the Output Tray**

1. Open the front cover and inspect the **output slot**.
2. If paper is stuck halfway, gently pull it **in the direction of paper movement**.
3. Do not pull the paper backward; this can damage the internal mechanism.
4. Check the area for torn paper fragments.

Once cleared, close the cover and move to the next step.

### **Step 4: Inspect the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)**

The ADF can cause jams during copying or scanning.

1. Lift the ADF cover.
2. Remove any jammed or misfed sheets.
3. Check for dirt, staples, or foreign particles.
4. Wipe the rollers and separator pad with a clean, damp cloth.
5. Let the ADF dry before closing the cover.

If the ADF continues to show jam messages, consider resetting the printer or contacting **support at 1-866-203-7571**.

### **Step 5: Check the Paper Cassette (Bottom Tray)**

1. Pull out the **paper cassette** completely.
2. Check inside the slot for paper debris or obstructions.
3. Remove any jammed or curled paper.
4. Reload the paper stack properly —

* Fan the sheets to avoid sticking.
* Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
* Adjust side guides to fit the paper snugly.
5. Reinsert the tray and make sure it’s fully seated.

### **Step 6: Clean and Inspect Internal Rollers**

If paper jams continue, dirty rollers may be the culprit.

**To clean:**

1. Turn off and unplug the printer.
2. Open all accessible covers (front, rear, ADF).
3. Use a microfiber cloth lightly moistened with distilled water.
4. Gently rotate the rollers while cleaning.
5. Avoid alcohol or chemical cleaners as they may damage rubber parts.
6. Once done, leave the printer open for 10–15 minutes to dry.

Clean rollers ensure proper grip and feeding, preventing future jams.

### **Step 7: Reset the Printer**

After physically clearing the jam, the printer may still display a “Paper Jam” error. A reset usually clears this.

**Reset procedure:**

1. Reconnect the power cable and turn on the printer.
2. Wait for it to initialize.
3. Press the **Setup** button on the control panel.
4. Navigate to **Restore Default Settings → All Settings**.
5. Confirm the reset.

This clears any false jam detection and resets internal sensors.

## **5. Fixing “Paper Jam” Error When No Paper Is Stuck**

Many users experience a **false paper jam** where the printer shows a jam message even when no paper is stuck. Here’s how to handle that:

### **A. Perform a Power Reset**

* Turn off the printer.
* Unplug it from power for 3–5 minutes.
* Press and hold the **Power button** for 10 seconds (discharges residual current).
* Plug back in and restart.

### **B. Clean Paper Sensors**

* Dust or ink buildup on the **optical sensors** can cause false jams.
* Use a soft brush or air blower to remove debris from paper paths.

### **C. Update Firmware**

* Outdated firmware can misread sensor data.
* Visit Epson’s official site → Support → Workforce 600 → Downloads.
* Install the latest **firmware update**.

### **D. Run a Nozzle Check or Paper Feed Test**

* From the printer menu, go to **Maintenance → Paper Feed Test**.
* If the test runs successfully, the issue was likely software-related.

If none of these methods fix the false jam error, contact **1-866-203-7571** for expert troubleshooting.
