The paper used for printing should not be wet, torn or folded from any side as this can cause paper jam, hence resulting in carriage jam. Also, use only one type of paper at a time while printing. The paper should be added to the In-tray only when the printer is not in use. Make sure not to overfill the In-tray.

Have you tried this? It explains the best way to get to the jammed paper - from the rear of the printer.

My hp photosmart 8250 keep showing paper jam but there's no paper jam anywhere. How can I get it to function properly?

Make sure there is no paper stuck inside in the paper. may be there is small piece of paper stuck inside
Just unplug the power and open the cover and remove the toner or cartridges from the printer and manually try to roll the roller and remove the paper.
Hope this helps. Please rate my response.
Thanks.
Have a good day.

My hp 8250 constantly does not feed paper. It tells me to load paper when the tray is full. Often times I have to push the paper toward the rollers with my finger to get the paper to catch and have it...

There is a plastic switch that detects paper. You will probably have to disassemble it to get to it. It could be dusty and jammed or broken or stuck. If it's broken, you might check to see how much a local shop will repair it for. Often, it's just better to buy a new one. Good luck.

I have a paper jam and can not get to the paper

If the machine says paper jam then the machine will not function until the paper is removed. The machine has to be disassembled and the paper removed.
