I have a new printer that says error paper jam how do i get it to print?
Answers:
Hi!
It could be there is a small bit of paper which accidentally was torned while removing a previous jammed paper. Check wherever you can within the interior of the printer (especially around the printer head.
Open the door to access the ink cartridges, and remove all the cartridges and install them back. Then restart the printer..
What printer is it? Does it have a secondary paper bay like some big printers have?
If all these fail, then you might be out of luck
If it is a brand new printer, it could be the mechanism is faulty, and you can bring it back to the shop or wherever you brought it from to get a replacement (hopefully you have the receipt or warranty card to supplement.
ur not puttin the paper properly! it probably gets jammed !! just open n close it !
1. Turn the printer off and on to see if it can automatically clear some or all of the jam. Many printers provide an error-code listing on the front panel display for the area where the jam occurred. If your printer shows an error code, be sure and check the printer manual to see if that identifies the area of the printer where the jam occurred.
2. Turn off the printer.
3. Remove any paper trays. Inspect them for wrinkled or damaged paper.
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 in a bag or away from 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. If you cannot see any paper – still rotate the gears – there may be very small pieces in there.
8. 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. Re-inspect the paper path.
