HP deskjet F380 - 'status: paper jam'. There is no paper jam!

Try to use some compressed air, on the back inside of the printer, probably one of the sensors is jammed with dust or a tiny piece of paper.

If you know you have the right cartridge, and it is inserted correctly, you might try opening and closing the paper jam door in the back of the printer. Sometimes the printer gets "confused" as to what the real problem.Or, at least my HP printer does.

i lost my cd of Hp Deskjet F380 and i want to install now to my cp, secondly it use to show me red light blinking saying paper jam while there is no paper jam inside the printer for now she is not working

This a link to a dtailed user guide and a driver source im hoping this will help. remember tell me if it did

unplug the printer,then manually remove all part of paper, then with a clean spong clean the gear feeding area. wait for 15 minutes plug back.

Hi,
Remove the jammed paper. Unplug the printer from the mains and PC. Inspect the rollers, etc for tiny paper piece(s) that may be stuck, or other debris. Try to clean rollers and make sure they are dry.
Keep printer unplugged for about 2 minutes and replug and try a test print.
Also make sure that you have waited long enough for the printer to heat up before giving a print job.
Finally, it could be an issue with the paper sensor. If this is the case, you will probably have to take the printer in for servicing..

Hope that helps!
Thanks

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

At the back of the printer... open the feeder door and slowly remove the jammed papers.... put it back and put some paper in the tray and press resume button... this will continue printing the remaining print jobs.

good luck... happy FIXYA...

your paper jam sensor is strucked or dislodge.please open it and check or send it for service
