HP Desk Jet 3320 paper won't feed any more

When I try to us my HP Desk Jet 3320, there is a whirring noise, and the paper just sits there.  It is no longer picked up to be fed into the printer.  The light starts to blink and the computer tells me there is a paper jam.

But there is no paper jam, and it does this every time I try to make it work.  I open and close the top and remove and replace the back and the process says all is well and then exactly the same thing happens.
I've reloaded the drivers and checked to see that the cartridges are moving freely.

The thing worked great for years and now has become useless.

Is this fixable?  And how do I fix it?

    How do you check the sensor for this? Also if you get a belt fixed, how do you fix that as well?

Hi , I think the belt which moves the cartridge is worn out or it could be something to do with the sensor.check both and should work fine.

We installed the hp 3320 software on our new laptop. when we print items it sends it to the printer; however its printing blank. the cartridge is full. how can we fix this problem?

The problem is a "clogged" ink-path -- the ink is not getting sucked ("stucked" without the 'T') into the ink-jet mechanism, and is not getting sprayed onto the paper.

Use the HP Printing Assistant software to run a "head-cleaning" cycle, to see if the clogging can be done.

P.S. FIXYA _censors_ some words, e.g., 'calm' is OK, but switching the middle letters to be: ****
will be censored. :-)

IAM USING HP DESK JET F2100 PRINTER MY PAPEROUT LED IS ALWAYS BLINKING AND NOT PRINTING

Possibly it either does not have enough paper in the tray - some printers require about half an inch of paper to work. Sometimes also the switch or feed on the paper try gets stuck, look inside to be sure the paper can feed properly onto the rollers, some printers have sort of a plastic piece that is spring loaded and moves, also look for a switch that may be stuck or if there is any tiny piece of paper that may be inside holding a switch open.
