Hi,
There are a few steps to follow to check the Printer.

Press the On button again to turn the product on.
If the error message is not resolved, continue to the next step.
Step two: Clear any paper jam
Follow these instructions to clear a paper jam.
CAUTION:
All paper jams must be removed from the back of the product through the rear access door. Pulling the paper from the front of the product rotates the paper feed roller in the wrong direction and can damage the product.

Turn off the product and unplug the power cord.

Turn the product around to access the back of the product.

Open the rear access door:

Locate the tab on the left side of the door and press it toward the right. The door will shift slightly to the right.
-
As the door shifts to the right, pull the door out slightly to release.
-
When the door is released, gently remove the door by sliding the door out and to the left.
-
From the rear access opening, gently pull the jammed paper out of the rollers.
NOTE:
If the paper tears when you are removing it from the rollers, check the rollers and wheels for torn pieces of paper that might be remaining inside the product. If all the pieces of paper are not removed from the product, more paper jams are likely to occur.

Step three: Make sure that the print carriage can move freely
Follow these instructions to make sure the print carriage can move freely.

With the product turned on, open the print cartridge access door. The print carriage might try to move into the access area. If so, allow it to move to that position.
-
Without turning off the product, unplug the power cord from the back of the product. Unplug the power cord from the power source. The power cord must be unplugged to allow the parts to be moved by hand and to reset the paper feed mechanism, without the risk of an electrical shock.

Looking in through either the print cartridge access door or the output paper tray, make sure the print cartridges are locked into the carriage and have not come loose. Also, make sure that there are no obstructions under or around the carriage to block it from moving.

Make sure the print carriage can move freely across the width of the product by gently pushing the carriage to the left and then to the right. Clear any obstructions found.
You may have to reach through the output paper tray to access the print carriage.

Close the print cartridge access door and plug the power cord back to the back of the product. Plug the power cord into the power source.
-
Press the On button to turn on the product.
If the error message is not resolved, continue to the next step.
