To Repair or not Repair Envy 7640 & where? Or what printer uses 62 ink as I am stockpiled?

[LyndaBlanton]

Hi, I'm trying to help my boss out. He has an old HP Envy 7640 printer. It had a paper jam and it is now stuck on stupid and is generating a false paper jam error. I have done everything I can including trying to reset it, cleaning every part I can including all the steps listed on this site and then some.  Under normal circumstances I would have just said go buy a new one but apparently he had stockpiled ink cartridges (62) for the printer and at this point the cost of buying a new printer along with replacing those cartridges is probably more then the cost to fix it, I would think.

Is there a place to fix it as I can't get hp to give me any more info on what to do. Or does anybody know how to buy a printer that takes 62 ink that wouldn't be used. I've had no luck on finding anything myself and figure I would make 1 last final attempt before I take it to the recycler. I would be super grateful for any help. Thanks.

I understand you are facing paper jam error.

If you have already performed the steps from the document Paper Jam HP and the issue persists, it could be a hardware failure.
