Answer this question 1 answer A: The Staples® 8-Sheet Extended Run Time Cross-Cut Shredder has a paper-in sensor, which detects whether a sheet is inside it. It is likely that this sensor is blocked. You need to turn off the shredder, and look inside the unit. The sensor should be in the middle at the level of the blades. If you shine a light inside, you should see the blockage and can clear it with compressed air. Otherwise, the shredder drive gear may be broken, and you will need to replace the machine.
