Dell 2155cdn printer message of 016-317

When I was printing some files I abruptly turned off the printer because I had to stopped the all pages that were not coming out of print right. After that, I had a paper jam and I took it out. But I also have to following message of "restart printer, 016-317". I did start and it is still there and it seems that printer is not being seen by computer at all. Even without connection, just power cable, it is still showing this message. It looks like a board or a fuse problem, is there any ideas what could it be? I tried to clean spooling and so on with command windows but it did not help at all.Thanks

I appreciate your answer. I was able to download and update firmware. While it was loading in the middle of it on the printer screen a message appeared which was saying "restart printer, contact support... if message returns, 116-364" This time it was a different message. I have followed your advice on ESS Errors and software issues and so on, clearing spooling and forth, I could not get rid of the message, do you know what would it be?
