The paper keeps jamming. I have looked for obstuction and found none.

There could be something blocking the paper path. Remove the sheets of paper from the feeder. Grab a flashlight and look into the feeder for any debris or foreign objects. If you're capable and willing, you may carefully lift the printer upside down so that any debris in the feeder will just freely roll out. If none debris found, lift the printer cover and remove the cartridges. While the cover is open check for any obstructions in the paper path. If none, close the cover. Unplug and replug the printer into the power source to reset it. When the printer turns on, reinsert the cartridges. Load some paper. Try to print again. If paper jam continues, please don't hesitate to contact Lexmark technical support for additional assistance.

Check the location of the ink carriage. If a piece of paper gets wadded up under this or something else is obstucting it you will see this error.

The original loaded message comes up when a sheet of paper is in the scanner tray.

Hi

The paper jammed can be found in the paper tray, remove the paper at the paper tray and inspect the roller for small pieces of paper jammed.

The paper can be found in the ink cartridge compartment, open the cartridge door and remove the ink cartridges, look for posibble paper jammer. Also once remove, check also the cartridge carrier if does not stuck up or jammed (cause this might me the problem). Turn off your printer and then move the cartridge head using your hand moving to the from right to left side and from left side to right side for 2-3 times. Move it gently.

Paper can be found in the rear access door if it is accessible. Inspect some paper jammed there.

Please let me know if you need more help

Keep looking there is a small piece some where in there that you are over looking.

It the paper comes out crinkled or accordion looking then it is your fuser. Check where your the paper comes out of. There might be a piece of paper jammed in there that is causing this. If no obstuctions then it might be the roller on the fuser cracking and cause it to crinkle the paper. The fuser is the last thing the paper goes through before coming out. It "fuses" the toner to the paper.

Your fuser unit needs to be replaced as the rollers are stalling.

At least $600 to replace it.

Look Inside of each cover on the printer & see if there is a small piece of paper inside. Also, check if there is loose dust from the paper built up by the sensor switches. If none of these work, try flipping the sensor switches manually. Sometimes these get stuck in a particular bad paper jam.

I have the same problem - every time I turn on my printer now, the alarm signal shows up with "Paper jam" but when I check for jammed paper, there is none. So I think there's something faulty with the printer. Is there any way to reset it? I've looked everywhere but can't find it.

Look at the rear of the machine, it may have an access door.

In response to a question by Fixya. I solved it by searching throgh all references to paper jams on Fixya. I found a solution which I have already described. This is a very helpful site.
