V305w keeps jamming

I have a v305 printer & when i try to print anything, it seems like it only is pulling the paper in from one side, which causes the jam. although, the printer is not even recognizing the paper at all & keeps saying to load paper. nothing prints.

plz_hlp,

 

I can help you install the printer and you can see if it works. Since you stated that it is new, I would return it for a replacement.

 

Disconnect your printer.

 

Un-install your printer.

 

Restart your computer.

 

Download the proper drivers.

 

XP Drivers

 

Vista 32-bit Drivers

64-bit Drivers

All other drivers

 

Update the firmware in your wireless router. Manufacturer's website, make & Model needed.

Broadcast SSID(You may want to change this to make it easier to connect)

Use WPA-PSK(TKIP) Security(WPA Personal). Most wireless devices work best with this type of security.

Mixed b and g mode(n if available)

Use channels 1, 6 or 11. Most devices work better on these channels.

Save and exit. Power everything off for 30 seconds. Power everything back on, wait 30 seconds, now try to connect.

I have this very same error. I got my printer on 2/20, and used it today to print, and same thing - pulls paper in from 1 side then jams.
