The roller on one side isn't picking the paper while the one on the other side is. Hwnce the uneven pull on the paper force the paper sideways and then jams.
This is usually caused by dust in the interior of the printer so try this:-
This is sort of scenario could be caused by dust inside the printer. Dust prevents the rollers from having a firm grip on the paper while picking paper. When one roller has a firm grip and rolls the paper well while the other doesn’t, jam/crumpling results. So I will suggest you get a long handle brush and try to reach as far inside the printer as possible and brush (from the back and front; if you have a blower please use it as well). This, if properly done should do it. Brush especially the rollers etc.
Hi, my cannon played up, paper was getting caught up on the right hand side and was not feeding through, warning kept telling me that there was no paper in the feeder!!, after trying numerous
( solutions ) tried my own, yippee, now working perfectly. I lifted the door to expose the ink cartridges, then slightly forced the cartridges over to the left, as they came to rest on the left side low and behold out popped a little beetle, that obviously was not noticable, but when it was forced out of it's prison exposed itself, Who would have thought !!!!!!
SOURCE: Canon ip1800 will not feed paper...One side jams
canon has a friction feed system,
clear the paper path and check if there are any small paper peace,
clean the pickup roller by a waterized cloth,
proper set the paper guide and try print again.

In the comments section Blumm suggests pushing a piece of cardboard (like the back of a legal pad) through the feeder as far as you can. Turn the printer off and then on again with it in there. Pull the cardboard out and check for any foreign objects that have been pushed through.
It worked for many people including myself - I got a piece of plastic and it works wonderfully again!
