Paper feeding crooked and jamming in my Canon IP6600D printer.

Top fed paper started feeding crooked and jamming every time I printed. I finally disconnected the printer, shook it and heard a rattle inside. Turned it upside down and a very small round metal piece fell out; it's about 1 1/2" long. It obviously has to go in the printer somewhere and keeps the paper straight when it feeds in the printer. Is this something I can fix from home?

Try doing a thorough cleaning of all the rollers in paper path making sure that there also no scraps or obstructions in the path.

SOURCE: paper jamming and can't print

Check if there is a piece of paper stuck in the feeder rollers, sometimes the smallest piece makes the bigger mess.

Hope That Helps!

SOURCE: Printer paper feed for Canon iP4200

There are probably problems with the rollers or the gear sequence that drives them. This type of repair may be more costly than what the printer is worth!

SOURCE: Paper feeds crooked into the printer

Check the adjustments for the paper your using. Open the printer and look on the rollers you'll probably find paper or an obstruction clear it and also clean then rubber moving parts with isopropyl alcohol to give them their grip back.

SOURCE: When I click on PRINT, the paper feeds through

The transport rollers are a slightly roughened rubber that gets less 'sticky' with age and the rollers become fouled with paper fibers that insulate the rubber from the driven sheet. Cleaning the rollers (on most, some disassembly required) may cure both problems but if you have ever done labels with the machine, you may have some residue of small piece of one in the wrong place.
Many of our (nearly disposable) printers are put together with molded snaps that must be pried upon to free them so it may be a daunting task for someone inexperienced.

Try two things:

Fan the paper before placing in the tray.

Raise the humidity in the room to at least 40% to avoid electrostatic sticking of the paper. Store paper in 40% humidity area.

Paper feeds crooked and results in a paper jam.

Assume every time this happens something microscopic fell into that tiny pinch of an area. I have found everything from a Tostito crumb to a chip of drywall blocking my paper feed. Flip your machine over and shake it around til the little bugger falls out.

Printer keeps reading paper jam

Normal 0 I suggest you get a sheet of Card Stock (Heavy paper) and place it in the feed way. Then press the print button applying a slight amount of pressure on the Card Stock so it will feed through the printer. The reason for this, is in some cases I have been able to clear the paper track of debris that was deposited there over time.
Worth a try, as I have fixed a number of printers this way, saving costly repairs.
Hope this helps. Bud

Paper is repeatedly jamming, won't print

Dear friends,
This problem caused by any other material (such as broken paper) are present in paper path blocking paper from being fed and reaches paper sensor. Please check paper source area carefully. I have met this problem so many times. Remove the material. Printer will normally work if paper sensor not broken.

'paper jam' error on canon pixma ip4300

Hi guys, I eventually found a solution to the problem for my printer. With the top cover open, I pushed a sheet of 120 micron thickness A4 clear plastic binding cover through the exit tray as far as it would go to rest against the bottom row of rollers. I switched the printer off then back on again and as the rollers lifted momentarily, I pushed the sheet of plastic as far up through the machine as I could before the rollers went down again - it went in a fair distance. The printer then ejected the plastic sheet. I then put the plastic sheet into the paper tray and tried to print a blank document page. The plastic fed through cleanly and my printer has been working since without any error messages. I hope this works for you.
