== == Diamond cut and confetti cut are both types of crosscut shredders. Diamond cut is a term usually used to describe short crosscut pieces of paper that resemble a diamond. Confetti cut shredded particles are longer and resemble confetti.
Since the paper is cut in regular shapes it can be re-assembled with a scanner and some software. A more secure method is to tear the paper apart by the fiber in irregular shapes. Those are known as a hammermill, "pierce and tear" or grinder.

Fix a jam in your paper shredder?
You can often fix a jam in a paper shredder by yourself, but it all depends on how bad the jam is. The first option is to put the paper shredder in reverse and see if that fixes the problem. If that doesn't work, unplug the shredder and remove the shredder head. See if you can remove the jammed paper from under the shredder head. Be careful as the shredder blades may be sharp. If this still doesn't work, try softening up the paper with some shredder oil. When the paper gets soft, from the oil, it will often work itself free. If the shredder isn't working at all, you may have simply blown a fuse. Most modern paper shredders have fuses. Try replacing the fuse and see if this helps. If none of these suggestions work, you may have to contact a service technician. ABC Office has a technician that would at least let you know what's involved to repair a serious paper jam. If the cost of fixing the paper shredder is too much, you may just have to replace the shredder. Good luck!

How do you oil a paper shredder?
There are a couple of ways that you can oil a paper shredder. The easiest way is to put shredder oil on a sheet of paper and run it through the shredder. Run it forward. After the paper has made it all the way through, run it backwards. This will ensure all the shredder blades get coated. I recommend oiling your shredder after every time you empty it. If you have visible access to the shredder's blades, you can squirt oil directly into the blades and run the shredder in reverse for about 15-30 seconds. Be sure to go from the far left to the far right, covering everything.
