    MFC8900 Constant paper Jam

    Anyone know how to check the paper sensors in service mode on this machine. I can't seem to find a service manual online anywhere. It saya paper jam under the drum, however there is no paper present.
    Thank You

    They may jam when drum is due. What about parts life?
    Vacuum it out really good and re-check. Faulty paper sensors are very rare on Brother printers.

    It is in a constant jam state. Someone pulled out some paper from the machine. More than likely there is a broken or jammed paper sensor. Any way to check that. Physically it shows nothing.

    There must be a scrap of paper SOMEwhere in the machine that is tripping a sensor. I'm not a Brother tech, but, there's a scrap SOMEwhere. A SM would help a good bit, but, like you said, can't find it.

    This is the closest I found:

    Maybe you can figure out something from it?
