PAPER JAM MESSAGE APPEARS WHEN THERE IS NO PAPER JAM

Impossible to answer without 'make model (what is is)' which should be written as the first three words! Fixya scripts should offer the correct category.

You can Edit that in and the question will be put back to the top of the list.

Or you can just Google

Sometimes a very small piece of paper can still be in the printer paper path after clearing a jam especially if the paper tears while removing the jam. The piece of paper may be too small to notice. Try blowing out the paper area with compressed air. Other causes could be the thickness of paper you are trying to print on, ie photo paper, thicker bond paper. Make sure the print settings match the paper thickness. I have a Lexmark laser printer, and I will get feed problems if the settings are not set for the correct paper type.

I hope this helps.

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.

Good Day Sir,
when paper jam occurs, Paper jam appears on the display.

Message Location of Jam

In the manual feeder
[Paper Jam 2] - In the paper exit area

hope this will help you. god bless

Set the paper in the
ASF, and press the OK
button.

In order for a jam message to reset to READY, the printer logic is looking for an "06 COVER OPEN" message. The top cover of the machine must be opened to clear the jam message. If the top cover interlock switch is stuck closed, the printer logic never clears the jam message, even after all the paper has been removed. The printer appears hung with the paper jam message and can only be made READY by powering the printer Off and back On.

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.

Hey folks! This solution worked for my "media jam tray 1" problem! Just took out paper, pushed down @ back of tray, reloaded paper, and bingo! Now to use some air to blow out any dust.
Thank you
