    This solution did help as the instructions stated that I needed to Remove the rear access door to clear the paper jam. Although I thought I had cleared all the jammed paper from the feed, when I opened the rear access door there was a ball of crumpled paper blocking the feed to the right of the printer. The printer is now "better". Thank you

Hi,
To solve this problem, clean the rollers inside the printer by loading one or two sheets of unused plain white full-size paper into the document feeder tray, and then press Start Copy Black to pull the pages through the automatic document feeder. The plain paper releases and absorbs residue from the rollers and separator pad.

If the problem persists, clean the rollers manually. To view the detailed instructions on cleaning the rollers manually, click here:

Hope this solves your problem. Thanks.

    The problem "crunching and jamming of paper" is due to unclean rollers in your printer. You'll have to clean the rollers by opening the rear access door of your printer.

In your printer.there are rollers to which paper gets rolled and then forwaded towards printin.to the sode of the rollers there is a gears on both the side.in your printer the side on which the paper crumbles that gear is not moving frequently and this is creating the problem.the dust is getting collected in between the gear or the gear is bit cracked.many a times getting the printer serviced solves the problem if its the dust in gears problem.other wise the gears needs replacements.

Paper jammed while trying to fax through the feeder. Help

turn it off slowly work the paper out by pulling it slowly from the direction you fed it or by whatever direction you find it will come out the easiest. If it tears you be patient and work out pieces you aren't the first person that ever jammed paper in a fax just take patience to get it all out.

Exactly what parts am I cleaning for a 'carriage jam' on an HP Officejet 7310 printer

the carriage jam error is meaning the path that the printhead is sliding from side to side. You might have a small piece of paper causing an issue.
