I now have an error message on the LCD of my Pixma MP780 that says "Clear Paper Jam - Press [OK]" but there is no paper jam to be found anywhere. The print status monitor says the jam is in the transport unit at the rear of the printer. But again, there is no Jam.
Sometimes while clearing the jam (if there was one) you may leave a bit of paper left behind which obscures a sensor causing it to think there is paper still in the paper path, or sometimes even paper dust can do it. Try a bottle of compressed air and blow the path out very well. Get a bright light (good flashlight) and very throroughly eyeball the paper path for any "foreign" objects...
I had the same problem with Canon Pixma MX310. Tried turning it on and off, checked for paper bits, etc. I finally cleared it by:
1-Turning off and unplugging cable to PC.
2-Sliding cartridges to left and popping them out and popping them back in.
3-Turned it back on and error was gone and printer worked perfectly.

Same as already described; possible added factor, it happened immediately after successfully printing with photo paper and switching back to "reg" inkjet paper.
i have clear pepap jam error i show press ok
I too am having same problem with "clear paper jam" error when this not any paper in machine. It also seems that the carriage with the printheads and cartridges is not centering when lid is opened as it used to.
i have a brother hl-1660e printer and it is giving me an rear paper jam but there is no paper jam
I have precisely the same problem with my PIXMA MP780 ie "eror #357, clear paper jam" but there never was one; and I also feel the print carriage no longer moves the way it should.

LCD says there is a paper jam and there is no paper jam...
I receive the message from the computer:
"Paper is jammed in the paper ejection slot." and on the printer: "Clear paper jam and then print ok"
There is no paper anywhere in the printer.
I've carried out all the inspections and sucked air through the ejection spot but still not work.
my printer says that i have to clear a paper jam but there is no paper jam!
What is the problem and what can i do about it? I've tried to open it and see if there was a paer jam but there wasnt anything.
Same problem as described. The Alarm light keeps blinking even after I press OK to fix the jam.
Does Canon have a fix for this Problem??
The printer screen says there is a paper jam but I have checked the tray and the feeder and there is no paper jam anywhere.
false paper jam error will not clear
I just recently got this printer and there were no directions how to operate it. Now I cannot figure out how to clear a paper jam. I am trying to delete something about print abrasion that keeps coming up in a message on my computer.
I am attempting to respond to a recurring message on my computer about deleting print abrasion; now I need to clear a paper jam. Also can you explain the message about print abrasion?
