Hello I have the same issue with an office jet 200 mobile printer. It says change ink cartridge and then paper jam. I tried changing the ink and there isn't anything jammed. Could you please assist?

Welcome to the HP support communtiy.
I understand that you are getting paper jam errors, I am glad to assist you
If you have tried all steps mentioned in this HP document:- Click here
And if the issue still persists, follow these steps to fix the issue:-
Reset the printer
Sometimes a paper jam error persists even though there is no jammed paper (false paper jam). To clear any possible false carriage jam messages, reset the printer.
- 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.
- NOTE:HP recommends plugging the printer directly into a wall outlet.
- Try to print.
Update the printer firmware to install the latest updates
