Paper jam indicated. Can not see any paper in printer. Continue to get paper jam message. Turned printer on and off several times.
Try This :
Connect the printer directly to the wall outlet ; not through any Power strip
Then Unplug the Power cable from the back of the printer
Keep on tapping the power cable for next 30 seconds
Plug in back the power cable;
Open the rear access door and you will get to see some rollers
Clean the rollers with a Lint free cloth Moistened with some distilled water
Try to do a copy if still it doesn works
Then Unplug the Power cable from the back of the printer
With one hand press and hold down the (#) and the (6) button and with the other hand plug in back the power cable ; it will do a Semifull reset on the printer; This will take some time ; Follow the instruction on the screen;
If still it doesn't work then you need to contact HP ;
The toll free no. for HP would be : 1-800-474-6836
They will replace the printer for you free of cost (No Charge if the printer is in warranty i.e within 1 yr of purchase)

OK, the problem is not the roller cleaning, I stop wasting my time on that.
It's the design flawed paper feeding roller gears, which is housed over the paper loader.
You cant visually see it, but you can feel it with your fingers over the top of where the paper sits in the tray.
It will slide up and down a thin mettle rod that should hold it in place....but often times it doesn't.
When that happens it's usually's a rap, it lightly strip the gears that is on the device that's connected to the paper feeder, that has the two rollers at the end of each side, that falls on the paper to advance it into the back pick up location for the paper. That device also has in line teath gears that turn one another as well....Hummmm. Repair is probably as much as investing in a new printer.
It's a bad design that needs to be redone.
