Panasonic kx-p7100

Jam clear steps I have taken with Win XP:

open front door - look for stalled paper
- remove toner cartridge if needed to remove paper - resets some jam conditions
- pull partially fed paper up from feed tray if evident

open back door - look for partially fed paper, may need to pull out toner cartridge
- remove paper if jammed

cycle power - turn off, wait for 5 seconds or until Win XP sounds bell or reports USB disconnect, turn on -- this resets the software in the printer and the USB handshaking and the USB driver software in Win XP

Samsung ML 1640

1) i am using a commercial toner [aumTEO: toner for use in samsung ML 1710, 1750, 1410, 1510] and one of my ideas is that this kinda toner would overheats the cartridge, therefore activating a thermal sensor, telling the printer to stop printing.

2) while refilling the cartridge... stupid me slipped a good amount of toner inside the green drum [i know... don't laugh too hard please :P ]... so... the toner being present there might overheat the cartridge activating the same thermal sensor i'm thinking about.

3) none of the above... the pages are too curved, therefore making the whole paper feeding process a lil bit more difficult

if i'm just being dumb.
