@wasi4, Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I understand how frustrating it can be when your printer keeps reporting paper jams. Let's work together to resolve this issue. Please follow the steps below carefully:
Turn Off and Inspect the Printer
- Power off the printer and unplug it from the wall.
- Open all accessible doors and trays (input tray, output tray, rear access door, duplexer if available).
- Gently remove any jammed paper. Avoid tearing it, use both hands to pull evenly.
Check for Tiny Paper Bits
- Use a flashlight to inspect rollers and paper paths for small torn pieces.
- Even tiny scraps can trigger a jam error.
Clean the Paper Feed Rollers
- Dust or worn rollers can cause feeding issues.
- Use a lint-free cloth lightly moistened with distilled water to clean the rollers.
- Let them dry for 10 minutes before powering the printer back on.
Use Recommended Paper
- Ensure you're using HP-supported paper types and sizes.
- Avoid wrinkled, folded, or damp paper.
- Fan the stack before loading to prevent sheets from sticking together.
Reset the Printer
- After cleaning and checking, plug the printer back in and turn it on.
- Try printing a test page.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
