Paper Jam In The Input Sensor
Recently after replacing the photo conductor kit on my E238 Lexmark printer I have had problems with paper jams right when a print job starts-I am not sure but would think mayb ein the input sensor area. Can you help me with this problems since we print 100's of pages a day. Thanks you.

To know which part of the printer has the exact paper jam, please check the error codes or, in your case, the lights that are blinking. Once you determine the error codes or which lights are blinking, please do not hesitate to contact us.
