There is plenty of paper but the screen on my scx4300 Samsung printer says 'no paper' and will not print. the black plastic hook/sensor thing underneath seems broken can it be fixed ?

No cleaning was successful, finally replaced the printhead and solved the problem.

Hi,
I was able to fix my problem. On the left side of the fuser assembly there are two small plastic tabs or flags that move up & down. One is attached to the plastic rod/flap that you can see from the top of the fuser and moves when the paper comes out of the "chute". The other tab, which is below the first tab and moves when the paper has passed some point in the fuser, was broken off. I glued the tab back on and now the paper is ejected from the printer like it is suppose to.

I'm thinking that the broken tab was part of a page sensor flag that would tell the printer to stop rolling the fuser assembly when the paper was ejected. Without the flag, the sensor would disengage the fuser prematurely and stop ejecting the paper while the paper was still in the fuser.

Lise, That is VERY similar to what I experienced yesterday. You can probably fix this by cleaning the rollers (all of them) thoroughly. See what I did exactly, and find directions to all the rollers from your manufacturer: http://annoyances-resolved.blogspot.com/2009/09/paper-jam-buy-new-laser-printer.html

Let me know if that helped you as it helped me solve the problem completely.

Hello there this may work for you, it has worked for many here I given this advice so 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.
