BROTHER MFC 230 will not feed paper after a jam

If paper is fluttering while feeding, what is actually happening is that the pressure solenoid doesn't activate. This is caused by paper dust on the paper sensor.
Take the drum out...notice the white guide roller on the left side inside the machine...it is held on with a white e-clip that can be removed by hand. The paper sensor sits just behind this roller. Remove with a phillips screwdriver and clean the sensor.

There is likely a piece of paper on the roller or gear that is still in there causing a jam. I would dismantle as much as possible to find the jam.

HI Rebeccah,
you have a object in your paper path its a very common problem with a canon printer,
canon Printer tech

I would check to see if the paper is even making it out of the tray. A lot of times, the feed rollers can get dirty, and the printer will display a jam if it doesn't feed in time. If the feed rollers look ok, then I would check and see if the feed rollers are even turning. Sometimes the motor that turns the feed rollers wears out.

This machine problem can be very involved.
A paper jam as described can be in any locations of the copier.
First of all when the toner-developer falls on the base of the paper feeder, it can contanimate all paper feed shafts and even sensors, and plug connections.
Worn feed rolls can cause the machine to jam. Clean the rollers and see if it corrects the problem.
A bent paper tray can cause the copy to skew, causing jams.
Sometimes the plasic paper path baffles are warped leaving narrow gaps in the paper feed path not allowing the paper to go through properly.
A bad paper feed sensor can cause inttermittant paper feed jams. This sensor is located just above the feed rolls. A involved process to take out without breaking the plastic components.
The machine has paper feed clutches located at the back of the feed rolls. To get to them it is also involved. Sometimes these clutches slip and will cause paper feed problems. There paper feed solinoids may operate intermittantly not allowing the paper feed clutch to operate correctly.
The main board can also cause these types of problems, not allowing the correct signal to operate the paper feed solinoids.
There is so much in this area to locate and isolate for paper feed problems.
If all else fails, call Xerox for a service repair.

One of your jam sensors may be stuck in the actuated position by a paper scrap or dust, giving a jam code to your printer. There are usually two sensors, one where the paper feeds, and one where the paper exits. Try this: hand-feed a sheet of paper through the machines paper path,IN THE DIRECTION THE PAPER NORMALLY FEEDS. This may force out whatever is actuating the sensors.

Printer jams come from one of two usual sources.

1. The paper is not fluttered(like shuffling cards) prior to inserting in the tray.

2. The paper is different, once from the other, in thickness. Most printers don't respond well to that sort of feed.

3. The rollers could be contaminated with dust, dirt, oil, etc, making the pickup of the paper a problem.

Sounds like a good cleaning is in order.

That is the problem, machine will show printer jam if paper feed rollers fail to pick up paper when requested, your machine sounds like it needs new paper feed roller or you can clean the paper feed roller with a slightly! damp cloth.

If no jam light shows when power is turn on and machine comes to ready and then you send a job to printer and it then shows jam then it is the feed roller or sometimes the feed clutch

If on the other hand it always show jam then there is or a switch is stuck.
