Lets try
few troubleshooting for paper Jam issue.
locate
and slowly pull out the stuck paper, perform the following steps:
1. Turn off the printer.
2. Open the printer cover.
3. Locate the stuck paper.
4. Remove the paper.
5. Close the printer cover.
6. Power the printer back on.
Locate
and Remove Any Obstructions Inside the Printer and Input Tray
1. Open the front cover and make sure the
kickstand (if there is one) is engaged.
2. Locate and remove any obstructions within
the printer, such as paper pieces, staples, tape, or other objects.
3. Close the cover.
4. Remove all paper from the input tray.
5. Inspect the input tray for any
obstructions.
6. Remove any visible obstructions.
7. Reinsert the paper.
Adjust
the Printer Paper Guides
Extend
the front paper support on the printer.
Try a
Different Piece of Paper in the Printer
1. Take the top 10 sheets off of the **** of
paper.
2. Verify that the remaining sheets of the
**** are not wrinkled or dirty.
3. Replace the remaining part of the ****
back in the printer.
Reseat
the Dell Printer Power Adapter.
If your
printer has a momentary loss of communication with your computer, it may be
necessary to reset the printer to re-establish communication. You can reset a
printer by unplugging the printer power cord from the electrical outlet and
from the back of the printer for 10 seconds then reattaching the cord at both
ends.
Try a
Different Type of Print Media
Many
image quality and paper feed issues are caused by the type of print media being
used.
Try a
different type of print media that is specifically made for this printer.
When
there is no different print media available, take out the top half of the stack
and flip it over.
Try
holding the printer upside down and shake it moderately
Make sure
you remove all the cables from printer before performing it
Check
with manufacturer if printer is still covered under warranty...
If yes
then get it replaced.....or else get a new printer

Could have a corrupt driver.
Disconnect
the printer or at least be sure it is turned off. I'd do
both and when the CD software program asks you to connect the printer
to the USB port, do so and it should again work properly.
Hope this helps. Bud

Sounds to me like there is something in the paper chanel, a staple, paper clip or something small enough to get in there. Have you tried turning the printer upside down and lightly tapping the side to see if anything falls out?
SOURCE: printer 948 false paper jam
Tonight, I fixed my neighbor's Dell 948 printer with false paper jam.
After you lift open the top, look below the shiny bar that the Print Head slides left/right on. You'll see a row of 8 tiny rollers. In between the middle two rollers (rollers #4 and #5 from the left), look for a small plastic tab sticking up between them. Touch this tab with the tip of a ball-point pen to see if it pushes down. If it does, then push the "checkmark" button on the control panel.
That's what I did to fix my neighbor's printer.
Sincerely,
John
