Document Feeder Jam error that won't go away

[Marcelelf]

The device will print but won't scan and feeder is disabled. I've tried everything to remove the error including resetting the printer but the message won't go away. There is no paper in the feeder or jammed anywhere and I can print.

Hi @Marcelelf,

Welcome to the HP Support Community

I understand you are facing a Document Feeder Jam error with your HP OfficeJet Pro 9013 All-In-One Printer. Not to worry I will help you to get a resolution to resolve the issue.

Let's perform a power drain: 

• With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer and also unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
• Remove the USB cable, if present.
• Wait for 2-3 minutes, press and hold the power button on your printer for about 30 seconds to remove any additional charge.
• Now plug back the power cable straight to a wall outlet without any surge protector or an extension cord (This is important) and then plug back the power cord to the printer.
• Turn on the printer and wait till the warm-up period finishes and the printer is idle

Lightly dampen a clean, lint-free cloth with filtered or distilled water, and then squeeze any excess liquid from the cloth.

Use the damp cloth to clean the paper pick rollers and the separator pad.

Leave the ADF cover open for two minutes to allow the rollers and pad to dry.

Close the ADF cover.

Reconnect the power cord, and then turn on the printer.

Reset the printer

Reset the printer to recover from printer errors or failures.

If your printer has a rechargeable battery, remove it.

With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the printer.

Unplug the power cord from the power source.

Wait 60 seconds.

Reconnect the power cord to a wall outlet and to the printer.

1. NOTE: 

HP recommends plugging the printer directly into a wall outlet.

Turn on the printer to complete the reset.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
