HP Photosmart D5160 trouble

I have a D5160, very little use, it now shows an orange light and indicates that there is a paper jam. The problem is that there is no paper in it. have cleaned it,used duster and cleaned again and even used a scope to look for some small piece of paper. Nothing there. have tried to reset. deleted and reinstalled. So far nothing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Orange light on SIDE (not top) of HP LaserJet P2015 Series printer won't go out. Have disconnected all leads and re-booted printer and computers (2) to no avail. There are no paper jams and have

Is there any text to indicate what this light refers to?

In general, you might want to remove paper trays, and use a compressed air can to spray inside the printer, especially the paper path. Oftentimes, paper dust will impede a photo-optic sensor, and keep an indicator light lit when there i no real reason for it. It can also give you a paper jam indication when there is none.

So blow out all paper dust to get the printer to work correctly now.

Hp photosmart D5100 paper feeded not working, flashing red light.

Please make sure that there is no paper (sent for printing in the printer) stuck inside the internal machine of the printer. You can check this by lifting the hood or opening movable parts of the printer.

For Mac Drivers, please visit here and follow the instructions given there.

It would be much easier for you and for me if you had mentioned the Operating System installed on your computer where you are going to install the printer. Anyway, select the suitable link for your operating system.

If you need further help, let me know.

Good luck.

Thanks for using FixYa.

Attention light blinks after jam

Hi,
most of the HP printers will detect the paper jam and will provide you with help window automatically to rectify the problem. If paper gets jammed, just remove it from backside and then turn off the printer and power it on. cancel any pending printing documents. Everything have to become normal. If it not, try restarting your system too.
I hope its helpful to you
