Message shows 'clear paper jam then press check mark....no paper jammed in printer but it will not reset.

Try either of the following methods to clear the paper jam. The operator panel displays the Ready message when the jam is cleared.Method A:

1. Press Paper Rewind until the Paper Empty message appears.
2. Press Paper Advance to re-load the paper into the printer.
   The printer advances the paper, then cuts and discharges about 24 in. (61 cm) of blank paper. This reduces the possibility of fingerprints or other damage to the prints.

Method B:

1. Turn off the printer and open the upper cover.
2. Remove the ribbon from the printer.
   Caution: Prevent damage to the printer. Do not pull abruptly on the paper.
3. Slowly and carefully pull the jammed paper out of the printer.
4. Cut off any damaged or printed areas of the paper. Do not damage or mark any of the rollers.
5. Close the upper cover and turn on the printer.
6. Press Paper Rewind to rewind the paper into the printer.
   Note: If the Paper Jam message still appears on the operator panel, press Paper Rewind again.
7. Open the upper cover and reload the ribbon.
8. Close the cover.
9. Reload the paper.

Note: If the Paper Jam message still displays on the operator panel, and you are at the end of a paper roll, it is possible that a segment of paper is too short to automatically exit the printer. Remove the front cleaning roller and remove the segment of paper.

If I load my paper at the 'proper' height, it will not feed. If I push the paper down too far, I get a 'paper jam' message. What works for me (even though it's a royal pain) is to feed 1 sheet of paper at a time. Put 1 sheet in so it's level with the top of the feed tray, then gently push it down 3/4 of an inch. That works for me. Good luck.

try taking all of the paper out and then just print one sheet.

also make sure that it is new paper, lays flat and that you have fanned it prior to inserting it in the printer.

The Lexmark Printer you are having a very sensitive printer.

Normally this tyoe of Printers are very very slow in Printing job.
Comparing with other laserjet used.

If the Laptop / Printer are under warranrty, the Service engineer
can rectifity the printer jamming.

Solutins :

Make the Printer - Monthly service compulsory.
Use only good quality paper in the Lexmark Printer.
Do not pull the paper through hand, when the print out is coming.

Look into the configuration settings of the printer.. there should be something like disable message on something...

if you can't find it.. try to rest your printer.
Turnit off -- then press Go (or something similar) button while turning it back on.
