To safely clear a paper jam causing E-01, first turn off and unplug your Epson printer. Open all accessible covers (e.g., front, rear, and scanner unit if applicable). Gently pull any visible jammed paper in the direction of the paper path. Avoid tearing the paper, as small pieces left inside can cause further issues. Use a flashlight to check for any hidden scraps. Once clear, close all covers, plug in, and turn on the printer.
