@Kimberleyxx, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
I understand you are not able to print due to this false error. To assist you better, which version of macOS are you using?
Make sure you have tried the steps mentioned in this document - E4 (Paper Jam) Error
Try making a standalone copy and check if that works. By this, we can conclude if this is a hardware or a driver issue.
Note: Copy is different from scanning.
Update the printer firmware
Click here to download and install the latest printer firmware from your MAC.
Click here to know different methods of updating printer firmware.
Also, check for any software updates on MAC
Click the Apple icon > About This Mac > Software Update and install any available update.
Try printing.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
