Have a Phaser 8200 that keeps getting a paper jam. It seems as though the jam mainly happens over night after the printer has automatically been restarted and when the printer has been sitting a while. Simply pulling out the paper always takes care of the jam.

The printer is confined in a small area in a media kiosk and seems to develop some excess heat, although it doesn't seem to get too hot. I am assuming that this may have something to do with the problem but haven't been able to leave the printer out over night because of the way it is used. Does anyone have an Idea what may be causing the constant paper jams?
 
If you print the event log, it will give you a numerical error code that might help in tracking down the problem. Also, it would be good to know where the jam is occuring? Front Door, Top Cover, Exit?
