SOURCE: Clear Paper Jam error -- but there is no paper 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...

SOURCE: "Clear paper jam" error, but there is no jam!

Thanks, tried all the maintenance options including cleaning the rollers. What I have found worked very well was to bin the printer and purchase an HP model!

SOURCE: I have a Canon Pixma MP 620 woreless printer and have a paper jam

Had the same problem. Turn off the printer (completely) and turn it on again. That fixed the problem for me (without even touching the paper tray!)

SOURCE: Canon MP 510 paper jam

I had the same problem and found a small coin in the back feeder. Remove the back coverplate and tip the machine onto its back and give it a good shake. You might be surprised at what falls out.

Error message 5C00 on screen, machine wont print or copy after cartridge fill, its a pixma mp 550 in spain looks like the 640.

Error 5c00 is classified as a purge unit error. The purge unit is a device in the printer that refreshes and cleans the ink cartridges. This error message occurs when the printer's purge unit is not able to complete its cycle fully.

Several issues can prevent the purge unit from cycling completely. Paper or debris may be caught in the purge unit or it may have become stuck out of place.

How to fix it:
1) Turn the printer on and open the cover.
2) When the carriage has moved to the center of the printer, disconnect the power by removing the power plug from the back.
3) You should now be able to slide the carriage gently to the left, which will give you access to the purge unit located on the right side of the printer.
4) Inspect the unit for any jammed debris or stuck pieces. Using a paper towel, gently move any jammed pieces back into place.

How do i clear a E-2 and a E-4 code on my Canon MP-160

For E, 2:

Reload the paper correctly and press [Black] or [Color].

Hi I get this 250.07 paper jam check mp feeder on Lexmark t644

Please try this

  1. Turn off the printer.
  2. Remove any paper trays. Inspect them for wrinkled or damaged paper.
  3. Also open the back cover of the printer if this model has one.
  4. Open any other doors that give access to the printer's paper path and to the toner or ink cartridge.
  5. If necessary, remove the toner or ink cartridge. Place it away from light/ sun light to avoid damaging it.
  6. If you find a piece of jammed paper, remove it by holding it with both hands and pulling firmly. The goal is to keep the paper from tearing. If several pieces are jammed together, try pulling out the middle piece first to loosen the jam.
  7. If the paper does tear, try rotating the roller gears manually to free the paper. Don't force anything, though. Do this step especially if the jam message comes up repeatedly without any obvious paper jam, there may be a small tear of paper inside.
  8. Ones the printer is free of paper Replace the toner or ink cartridge and paper trays, close any doors you opened and turn the printer back on.
  9. If the printer paper jam message still appears, then there is still some paper in the printer. Reinspect the paper path.
  10. see alternative if the problem is still not solved.



alternative :
Load a piece of thick paper, for example photo paper and press the resume button (may be diffrent button on diffrent models) a few times to the printer picks up the paper and puts it through the machine.

Message reads: the paper is jammed clear the paper and press OK

Hi,
Even if a small piece of paper stuck inside the printer you ll get this msg.  So what you have to do is if you have a Air blower or vaccum cleaner blow air inside the printer,  If any piece of paper is stuck inside it will come out and you won't get that msg again.  Try this and sure it will work...!

Printer says paper jam, but no paper in there

use a flash light check all paper path, specially the area around the toner. all you need is a small piece or other (dust). There is a micro switch that detect the paper travel. so if anything preventing the switch to open, you will get error message.
after that, open the toner door, reseat the toner and close the door. the pirnter should return to normal.
