This is just a clarification of the error messages that the Reference Printers give us.
Paper Jam: Printer means “underneath the toner cartridge”
Paper Jam: Duplexer means inside above the top paper tray.
For the first one, simply remove the entire toner cartridge and fuser. That is NOT the blue lever. Just lift the entire thing and it will all come out. Remove the paper jam and use the green arrows to line up the toner unit and replace it.
For the second one, you have to remove the top paper tray (#1). In the top of the paper tray cavity you’ll see a green tab. Pull that down to expose the paper that is stuck. Remove it, let go of the green tab, and replace the paper tray.
For ALL paper jams, they have GREEN tabs, levers, and arrows to help you know where to look. The BLUE lever in the top is only for removing empty toner cartridges. Please don’t use the blue lever when removing paper jams, since it doesn’t help and often results in toner leakage inside the printer and on the first batch of print jobs.
If you’re more of a visual person, Kyocera has a web page with step by step instructions and pictures for clearing each type of paper jam.
Hope that helps.

Are you starting a research project? Your first stop should be LibGuides.
Our librarians have gathered all kinds of resources into the new LibGuides system, making it your one-stop-shop for research. Visit http://libguides.butler.edu to get started.
(We’re also in Facebook! http://apps.facebook.com/libguides/ )
You may have noticed that as of last night we finally have the ability to search the library website from a box located in the sidebar above Ask A Librarian. This is the same search feature that’s on other department sites and you have the choice of searching the library website or all of Butler. It took some testing and tweaking but it’s all set and functioning well now. Please let me know if you have any problems with searching or results or whatever.
Thanks.

Regarding instant messaging at the
Reference Desk, I have good news and good news.
First the good
news.
I have removed Meebo from the
Reference Desk computer and reloaded Gaim, which is now called Pidgin. We’ll be
using Pidgin for our Instant Messaging, which means it will work like we used to
have it working, with it minimized to the system tray and popping up when
someone sends us a message.
Now the good
news.
Pidgin has a plugin which allows it
to interface with Meebo. That means we can keep our Ask-A-Librarian widget but
not have to keep a browser window open for the Meebo widget to work. We just use
Pidgin like we used to and if anyone types a message in the widget box on our
Ask-A-Librarian page, it just pops up in Pidgin like any other chat
message.
This will simplify things for us at
the Desk while still offering the increased functionality that we added with
Meebo. It’s the best of both worlds!
If you have any questions when it’s
your turn to work at the Reference Desk, please let me know and I’ll give you a
tour of how everything works.
