HP DeskJet 3758 Error Code E3

Paper does not feed

[VikramTheGreat]

Hi @Spurway,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

The E3 error code on your HP DeskJet 3758 typically indicates a paper jam or paper feed issue. Here's how to resolve it:

1. Check for Jammed Paper

• Turn off the printer and unplug it.
• Open the input tray and output tray.
• Gently remove any jammed or stuck paper from the input area, cartridge access area, or rear access panel (if accessible).

2. Inspect the Paper Path

• Make sure there are no small bits of paper or debris inside.
• Use a flashlight to check deep inside the rollers.

3. Reload Paper Correctly

• Use clean, wrinkle-free paper.
• Fan the stack to prevent sticking.
• Load the paper properly into the input tray and adjust the paper width guides snugly against the paper.

4. Clean the Paper Feed Rollers

• Use a lint-free cloth lightly moistened with distilled water.
• Gently clean the rollers inside the input tray.
• Let them dry for at least 10 minutes before turning the printer back on.

5. Reset the Printer

• 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.
