    Clear the paper jam. If the problem still continues after clearing the paper jam, try to clean the encoder strip behind the printer head
    (((( or some sensor problem. )))

SOURCE: my mx 300 keeps saying

Hello thanks for using fixya
There are some "micro-sensors" that detect a paper jam. There will be tiny piece of paper, or a lump of dust, inside those sensors, thus "tripping" the sensor and saying you paper jam.

To solve it
Open printer cover and check to make sure no paper or foreign objects obstructing the printer feeder

If you become sure that now really there is no paper, dust or foreign objects then
Turn the printer off, and disconnect the AC power-cable. Open the printer cover & now give the printer a "blow-job" by compressed air.
If still problem exist then best & final option is to just contact to any Canon service provider.

I hope this solution will helpful 4 u

SOURCE: not printing glossy A4 paper / paper jam / no paper feed

dont use thick photo paper like 230 gsm up, instead use 180 gsm papers. but if you dont want to waste the purchased thick photo papers, you can open the back and manually insert the paper once the printing process started. i tried this as a trial & error basis until i had perfected it.... hope it works with yours.

SOURCE: DCP j125 Inkjet printer stopped printing showing

well, cut the small piece of black tape (or you can use black permanent marker) and then cover the sensor of the cartridge, once the device will ask you to reinstall the cartridge and new system will detect as a new cartridge

How to reset unable to clean 50 error on brother dcp-j125? I cant open my printer brother dcp-j125 due to an error unable to clean 50.no paper jam occured

Clean 50 is either Dirty Encoder Stripe or broken Maintenance Unit. In first case clean thoroughly the vertical Encoder Stripe and it should work. In case 2 better exchange the machine

You need to pres Menu-Mono Start-Up Arrow 4 times in less than 2 Seconds !!! and you will be in Maintenance mode. LEDs will be flashing. Press the Up Arrow and numbers will change and press OK after the one you want to select. The number sequence is the following. 8-0 2-8-6-4 4-4-6-0 7-7 9-9

Brother Print Unable 50 Error

No ;-)

The encoder strip switched off the ph and has to be set into place again.
see here how to fix it:
http://www.fixya.com/support/t211210-brother_mfc845cw

(enlarge the browser window to see pics somewhat better)

An advice:
when you have set the encoder strip in pos. again stick some scotch tape on the top of the ph cover where the strip runs thru to prevend the slipping off again on next paper jam ;-)
