The printer will. not print because of a paper j;am. I opened the printer and determined there is no paper jam. Trying to print again gives me a message of "printer is in error status,"with no further information. I have no idea what to do.

@rocker1942, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Let us try these steps to resolve this issue:
Reset the printer
- With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
- Wait at least 60 seconds.
- Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.
- Turn ON the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.
- Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you proceed.
Note: HP recommends connecting the printer directly to a wall outlet rather than a surge protector or a power strip.
Check and verify there are no foreign objects/papers stuck inside the printer.
Refer to the steps mentioned in this document.
Now, try making a standalone copy and check if that works.
Let me know how this goes.
