The rubber pickup rollers (or tires as Dell techs call them) on my printer sort of 'deteriorated' and broke into little pieces. As such it can't feed the paper to be printer due to lack of friction. The printer is still in good shape and I have a bunch of ink cartridges for it. Anyone know how to get to the pickup rollers area? I remove the couple of screws from the back but could not remove anything. In fact the it looks like a one-piece moulded plastic. Thanks
SOURCE: no paper feed
spare parts are not easily available it is bettre to give service peronnel and they will arrang and fix the problem. bye
SOURCE: Dell 720 printer won't print
Our Dell AIO A940 stopped printing black ink. Tried so many things, and finally (a year later) got it to print by selecting:
PRINT, PROPERTIES, PAPER SETUP, SPECIALTY PAPER, PHOTO/GLOSSY
It's worth a try! Good luck!
SOURCE: Refilled my Dell Ink Cartridge
It's never going to recognize a product that is not original even if it's refilled in the Dell cartridge. That's happened to me--you get used to it. Dell just wants you to get it from THEM and not from any where else. I have a 922 All-in-One....It's been good for the past 3 years.

1. Turn the printer off and open the access cover.
2. Look for any obstructions in the paper path and remove them if necessary. (It is possible to move the carrier assembly with the power off.)
3. Turn the printer on, load some paper, and press the Form Feed button.
4. Watch the paper as it feeds through and try to determine where the jam is occurring.
5. Check to see if all the rollers are turning.
Good luck..
If all the rollers are turning, there may be something in the feed path that you can't see. Go to step 6.
If not, there is probably a feed motor or a gear problem and the printer may require service.
6. If the paper is jamming under the carrier assembly, you may be able to fix it using the manual feed slot.
7. Turn the printer off.
8. Take a #10 envelope and feed it through the left side of the manual feed slot until it comes right through the printer to the back of the exit rollers.
9. Move it up and down first, and then slowly move it over to the right side. If something is stuck under the black guide plate, this may work it loose.

When working with any printer it's inevitable that you'll encounter a
paper jam. Below are the steps you'll want to follow when this occurs.
1. Turn off the printer.
2. Inspect the location or tray the printed paper ejects to. If the stuck paper is visible manually remove it.*
3.
Remove all paper trays and any paper that may be stuck between the tray
and the printer. If the stuck paper is visible manually remove it.*
4.
Open the printer door that allows you access to the printer ink
cartridges or toner and look for any stuck paper. If the stuck paper is
visible manually remove it.*
5. Turn the printer back on. If you continue to receive a printer jam error try repeating the above steps again.
If
issue still persist and you see no paper that is stuck in the printer
it's likely your printer is experiencing another hardware issue and we
suggest contacting the printer manufacturer for additional assistance
and/or repair. *
To manually remove paper pull on the paper
with both hands being careful not to tear the paper while pulling it.
If you're unable to get to an edge of the paper that allows you to pull
it you may need to manually rotate the gears that feed the paper
through the printer. Preventing a printer paper jam As mentioned
earlier it is inevitable that you will encounter at least one paper jam
during the life of your printer.
However, if you're encountering
frequent paper jams following the below steps can help prevent paper
jams from occurring. * If your printer has a paper tray do not fill the
tray to capacity. If you're encountering frequent paper jams reduce the
amount of paper you place in the tray each time it is filled. * Make
sure you or the tray feeding the paper into the printer is aligned
properly and/or the slider used to hold the paper in place in the tray
is snug with the paper. Many printers have sliders that allow different
types and sizes of paper to be fed into the printer. If the slider is
not properly positioned it can cause paper jams. *
Use
standard office paper; folded paper, paper with labels, and specialty
paper such as hard bound paper can often cause paper jams. If you're
uncertain with what type of paper you should use with your printer your
printer documentation will list the types of paper compatible with your
printer. * Do not mix the types of paper you're feeding into the
printer at one time. If you need to change the type of paper or size of
paper being used removed any other paper currently in the printer
before inserting the new paper. * Examine the printer for any previous
stuck paper in the printer. Previous paper jams, torn paper, printing
labels or other foreign objects in the printer can cause reoccurring
printer jams.
I hope this information allows you to resolve this issue.
