Printer won't print – it shows paper jam when there isn't one, then says there's a problem with the ink cartridges, then I turn it off with button, despite warning. After rebooting, it asks to print a test page, which looks great, then it will print pages, which also look great. This lasts for a few hours, then problem repeats. The most recent hang actually caused the printer to freeze; I unplugged it and was able to restore operation as described above.

This has been a fantastic, dependable printer and I'm reluctant to part with it! Thanks for any help you can offer.
