Printer is in alarm mode stating a paper jam when there isn't one?????

Even though u cant see a jam there there is exactly a jam inside
U believe it or not thats why paper jam
Look for the paper detection sensor below the carriage
use ur common sense
I cant say exactly it is detect sensor it may be some other sensor related to gear wheel set
but most of the cases paper jam occurs due to malfunction of paper detect sensor
If u find it use a thin tool to see it is working properly
otherwise give it to someone know how to repair & pay a reasonable price
thx

I have a Canon MP 210 with an E3 error message (paper jam) though there is NO paper jam. The paper feeder is spinning but doesn't grab the paper. Please help! Thank you, Robin

I think there is a paper jam or something stuck in the sensor that is making it think there is a paper jam. It may be a very small piece of paper which you have missed. Look again.

I continue to get error message 3 from my pixma

E3 is paper jam.First, make sure there is no paper jam anywhere in the machine.. look inside, rear, where the paper tray (output)
is, etc to see if you find any shreds or torn paper that may have gotten stuck and you didn't see.Look carefully in the zone of Purge unit, using flashlight in the right side on printer.If this not help your printer need service, because in most case when have a paper jam it's under withe rollers and printer must be disassembled.

I have a Canon Pixma MP 620 woreless printer and have a paper jam

Had the same problem. Turn off the printer (completely) and turn it on again. That fixed the problem for me (without even touching the paper tray!)

Error e 3 with mp150 but no papper jam

this is a paper jam,

As the machine is a old model you might as well strip the machine down and inspect it for any lose paper, it could be the reg sensor has bent causing it to always say the same error.

by the time you have tried all this i would maybe look to buy a new machine with a years warrenty from Canon

Hope this helps

Paper jam

There are several things that can cause a paper jam error, even though there is no paper stuck. The most common is that the paper pickup rollers are worn or dirty, and can't grab paper. Even though there is no paper jammed in the machine, it will show the error message. The solution is to clean the roller with alcohol and a lint-free cloth (don't use paper towels). If the roller is very worn, you will need to replace it.
