Canon PIXMA paper jam

I have a Canon Pixma MP160, that has worked wonderfully until yesterday. It just stopped printing and the paper dropped only half way into the printer. I'm not sure where to begin. System stops and I get a message that says to hit start to release paper (that doesn't work).

Hi there ok gave it a try it could work for you. Generally when this happens, something has fallen into the printer, or a piece of paper has been jammed in there.

First step, remove the ink cartridge, and turn the printer upside down and gently shake it, see if anything comes out.

If nothing goes, or you can't hear anything rattling around, get a piece of cardstock paper (60lb or heavier) and gently push this through the printer, to see if it will help push out what might be stuck in there.

And gave the rode that the ink slides on a good clean and maybe a bit oil on cloth and wipe the rod with it.

Please come back and just gave a vote, it will gave me some satisfaction to know am helping some one so I will keep on helping.

My Canon Pixma MP160 won't work :( It says there's paper jammed in the printer and it needs to be removed but there isn't anything there. . . HELP!!

Previously when you had tried to printing any paper the printer has adopted paper jammed error but at this time you have not turned off the system.The printer has configured paper jammed whenever you are trying to print.
It represents that it want to restart the system.
Unplug the printer and reconnect to your system.
