ABSTRACT:
An image forming device capable of detecting that a paper jam has occurred in a paper path thereof during a priming operation of the device, and when the paper jam has occurred, sets a time period for the user to manually eliminate the paper jam or eliminate the paper jam through an automatic process. Once the time period has elapsed and the paper jam has not been removed, an engine part of the device is automatically driven to rotate various rollers therein in an attempt to automatically deliver the jammed paper to an exterior of the device.
