AFTER CAREFULLY INSPECTING INTERNALLY, FRONT & BACK, THERE ARE NO PIECES OF PAPER. STILL, MY PC SCREEN INSISTS THERE IS A PAPER JAM AND THE PRINTERS LIGHT KEEPS FLASHING. TIME FOR A CANNON PRINTER?

Exactly the same problem. Removing the rear access door, then gently shaking the printer to ensure nothing loose was trapped inside, did not solve the problem (nothing fell out).

I have the same problem from day 1. HP suggests a cleaning kit on their support page but when I click on it, it does not exist. Very unlike HP.

Make sure the back cover (black panel) is fully closed. If it is, remove the panel and shake gently to make sure nothing has fallen inside.

Hp psc 500 only prints one page and then says it has paper jam. The paper jam doesn't exist, but works one time after turning off and on.

Paper sensor is broken or dirty. Check youtube on cleaning your exact model.

Did you check for a Paper jam? Even a little bit of paper can cause a jam and that is normally what your problem refers to.... using too thick of paper can cause this kind of error as well

HP PSC 1610 - Keep getting paper jam error with no paper jam.

Hi there ok Generally when this happens, something has fallen into the printer, or a piece of paper has been jammed in there.

First step, remove the ink cartridge, and turn the printer upside down and gently shake it, see if anything comes out.

If nothing goes, or you can't hear anything rattling around, get a piece of cardstock paper (60lb or heavier) and gently push this through the printer, to see if it will help push out what might be stuck in there

Please come back and just gave a vote, it will gave me some satisfaction to know am helping some one so I will keep on helping.
