Many thanks Prof - not being very adept at tackling things mechancial, I simply switched the printer off,

said a prayer, and switched it back on - so far no more grinding noises! However, will keep your excellent

notes on alternative solutions, just in case!

Ditto, I did not find any paper in my printer but running through all the suggestions did the trick. The awful loud grinding noise is gone. Many thanks!
