try to run Maintenance from windows control panel, also open all compartments on teh printer and look to see if there is a fragment of paper stuck there.

Remove side & back covers before starts is activity:1. Check whether printer initializing after powering on? If the error appearing after initializing check is there any paper jammed under the registration assm area.
2. If the error showing straight away after power on, check paper jam in duplex unit. check paper out sensor & sensor flag located in fuser assembly . Fuser assm located at back side of the printer.

Hi
Check the following possibilities that may causing the error message.
1. Some times more paper may be taken in the paper feed area, check for any other paper jam in other area of the printer.
2. Remove all the printer drives, ports and uninstall the printer software and once again reinstall it by following steps given below
Start - Control Panel - Add and Remove Programs - Remove the program in the list called Tally Laser printer.
By now you have uninstall the software and now reinstall the software with the available cd given at the time of printer purchase and start printing.
Thank you

I have had this problem, and have became very furiated.

Clear the Jam by removing and paper you see in from the rear access door.
If you are printing something from a PDF website....... make sure to have it still in the printer schedule.... It will still say printer jam..... but have it there regardless if its something you dont want to have to retype into the pdf form........ After that simply restart your computer. It should resume printer as soon as your computer boots up.....

Worked for me..... Hope this helps everyone else whos probably cursing your printer at the moment!!!!
