Abstract
This is a system that enables a marking system to automatically clear itself of paper jams even when the marking system is unattended. The paper transport is enabled to move forward and backward, and when a jam occurs it will automatically move backward or in reverse direction until the jam is cleared. Sensors indicate where the jam is and when it is cleared.
