Although i pulled out any jammed paper from the output bin the printer still says there is a paper jam.  I've looked every possible opening and can't find any more jammed paper.  I've tried rebooting the HP several times but no luck on clearing the error.  Anyone have this problem or any suggestions?

Hello Kimba16;

 

You can try a power drain: turn printer off, unplug power cable along with any other cables, press and hold power button (with the unit unplugged from power) for 2 minutes. Then you plug it back in, turn in on and test.

 

If that does not resolve the issue you can also try with a reset, but keep in mind you will lose any user-defined values like wifi password, scan to email setup, user profiles, manually set IP address etc. 

 

If none of the recommendations work, you will need to take the printer to a certified repair center for deeper inspection.

A fuser wrap jam is very common on this model. A paper gets wrapped around the fuser and is nearly impossible to see. If you have exhausted every other option then you may need to remove the fuser so that you can get a better look at it.
