Lexmark X4850 paper jam

Try checking the printer for foreign objects that might be interfering with the paper path. Tilt the printer sideways and try shaking it a bit. After that, try printing. If the issue persists, clean the rollers of the printer.

Hi
Clear any print queues.
Turn the printer off and on.
Try disconnecting/unplugging the printer from power.
Connect it after a while.
Try printing.

Hi

Error 5C10 means a paper jam or the printer has encountered an internal error. And error 6A00 is caused due a paper jam in the sheet feed unit or near the print head. You can also reset the printer to resolve this issue. On the printer press and hold the ON/OFF button or unplug the power cord. Wait for 10 seconds, press power button ON/OFF button again. If this doesn't resolve the error code then unplug the printer for 10 minutes. Also, inspect the back panel of the printer for any paper jams. To clear the paper jams---

Turn off the printer and disconnect the power cord and USB cable. Remove the jammed paper slowly using the following procedure. Open the rear cover to check if the paper is jammed. Pull out the cassette and check if the paper is jammed inside the cassette area. Stand the printer with the rear side down, holding the document cover. Press the tabs together and pull the green cover toward you. Check if the paper is jammed. (If you were not doing Duplex printing, you do not have to follow this procedure.) Close the green cover and place the printer back to a normal position. Reconnect the power cord and power on the printer. Confirm the Alarm light is off. Load paper back into the ASF or cassette. Press to clear the message and continue printing. If you are printing from application software, follow the instructions displayed on your computer. Hope this helps... Please post back if you need more information.

Just needs reset hold down power button for three seconds shold work or unplug and plug back in.

Hi,

The problem is that the printer thinks that there is a paper jam inside the printer. What could be happening is that there was a paper jam the paper was pulled out but the actual sensor that detected the paper probably got damaged, either broken or malfunctioning. In this case try the following, turn off the printer and open the front cover. Then press and hold down the two front buttons while having the cover open and turn the printer on. Then wait untill the bottom light stays on solid then release the buttons that should reset the printer. If after that the paper jam error does not go away then you are probably looking at a damaged sensor. To fix that you will have to take it in to have it service.
Hope it helps.

There will be some form of error clear code that would need to be entered. It would be something like "holding down the print key and powering on the printer at the same time" The manual may tell you.
There are different combos for different manufacturers.

Hooray for McGuyver techniques, but I just shoved a piece of paper in there so it actually had a jam, pulled it out, and it cleared fine!

on power up let me guess the most frequent errors on power up are 922 fuser error means ac circuit is open replace the fuser. 201 jam error no paper present replace the main motor drive. 954 nvram error hold right arrow go and reutrn buttons down power on the machine if it doesnt reset repplace the engine board this is just a band aid thie error is known to return. there are also several scanner errors that can come up a biy more info would be good

Hi

If there is a error msg on the operator panel of the printer, try the following steps

1.press and Hold the start button and the cancel buttom on the printer and holding them down unplug the Power adapter from the printer , wait for abt 30 secs and then put back the power adapter and then release both the buttons.

2. manually move the rollers present inside the paper tray, lift the printer and shake it firmly , turn the printer upside down and gently tab on it , put back the power adapter and then turn on the printer , if it still gives the same error msg , then purchase the new printer

The problem is that after the cover sensor clip is replaced, the logic that tells the printer to feed the paper just to the beginning of the input roller is corrupted. The feeder roller (grey one at the paper feed) rolls to feed the paper and once the paper get to the input roller, another switch detect the paper, that tells the logic to change the direction of the input roller to feed the paper to the cartrige.

There's should be a way to reset the logic part of the printer to get it working right. Maybe pushing a combination of the front panel buttons.

Try playing with the power/green or power/"X" while unplug and plug the power cord.

Good Luck!!! email me with more sugestions/ideas... jmjc_65 at hotmail...
