CiCi,

 

Was there a luod bang?

 

If yes, try reading...

Cleaning the encoder strip (Loud bang from printer carriage)

 

See if the encoder strip came off. If yes, then the second thread tells you how to put it back on.

Hi,

Welcome to the community,

power off the printer and disconnect the power cable from the printer

then try to reach out to the carrier towards the right and  try to bring to the center

if you are unable to bring it to centre then you should refer techs from radio shacks

however if you can bring the carrier to the centre, remove both the cartridges and install the cartridges and close the lid on it and it should give a click sound

then move the carrier from left to right for 20 seconds without powering it up

then replug the power cable and then check the settings and the printer should not give paper jam error

if it persist then remove the papers and disconnec the power cable, wait for 5 seconds

reconnect the power cable, fann the papers and place it back in and then try to print and it should work.
