Carriage Jam error with HP C6280 All-In-One




By danielgrantw on Jul 19, 2009

Every time I initialize the printer, I'm receiving a carriage jam error. I've tried cleaning the encoder strip with alcohol, and it's still giving me the same error. What else should I try to fix this problem?

Hi,
Remove the jammed paper. Unplug the printer from the mains and PC. Inspect the rollers, etc for tiny paper piece(s) that may be stuck, or other debris. Try to clean rollers and make sure they are dry.
Keep printer unplugged for about 2 minutes and replug and try a test print.
Also make sure that you have waited long enough for the printer to heat up before giving a print job.
Finally, it could be an issue with the paper sensor. If this is the case, you will probably have to take the printer in for servicing..

Hope that helps!
