Welcome, below you will find the steps to clear a printer jam, even thou there is no paper jammed inside the system. If you run into problems use the buttons below to respond to me.

1. Turn printer unit ON
2. Pull the power plug from the back side of it
3. wait 1 min
4. Plug unit back in
5. wait 3 full minutes
6. try to print does the jam error still exist? If yes continue below

Locate one piece of CARD STOCK paper and manually feed it up against the feed assembly and into the feed. the idea is too dislodge any pieces of paper that may be broken off inside the rollers. Repeat this process until the jam error goes away.

If the CARD STOCK paper trick does not do it for you, then locate 1 can of compressed air certified for electronics, ie. walmart $4 open all printer covers, unplug the printer, and spray vigorously around each of the rollers. Plug printer back in, and try to print. if you continue to receive the same exact error, you may respond using the buttons below. Please DO NOT RATE me until I have solved this for you.

IF YOUR ISSUE CONTINUES PROCEED BELOW

Locate one can of COMPRESSED AIR approved for electronics WALMART $4 and spray vigorously in all open covers and areas, REMOVE POWER CABLE FIRST, continue to process until you have expended all of the can of air. Concentrate in areas where you will rollers. The rollers run from left to right and right to left not vertical.

I will continue to support you until we have solved this issue.

IF YOUR PROBLEM IS SOLVED, PLEASE PROVIDE ME WITH A HAPPY RATING! Please DO NOT RATE me until I have solved this for you.

I have sprayed with the can of compressed air. I has worked most of the time but not all. It still won't take the card stock. Do you mean use up the whole can of spray the entire printer even under the top glass above the rollers and where you put the paper to be copied?
Thank you fopr your patience.
