ABSTRACT:
A method for eliminating a paper jam from an image forming system is disclosed. The image forming system includes: an engine driving motor, register rollers for arranging paper received from a paper cassette, a register roller clutch for enabling and disabling transmission of rotational power from the engine driving motor to the register rollers, and fixing rollers for securing toner onto a surface of the paper and then delivering the paper to an exterior of the system. The paper jam elimination method includes the steps of: determining whether a paper jam has occurred, displaying an indication of the paper jam upon its detection, determining whether a paper jam elimination mode is activated, engaging register roller clutch upon activation of the paper jam elimination mode, and then activating engine driving motor to thereby deliver jammed paper to an exterior of the image forming system.
