Paper keeps jamming on my canon mp 480 . I have already turn upside down and looked for small bits of paper nothing came out when i try and print it makes a small buckle in paper just off center to left...

Small bits of paper lodged near the gears at the back of the rollers are difficult to see and remove. This causes the paper to jamb and crumble.
You most likely need to dismantle the printer to find the bits of paper.
When you pull paper from a fresh jamb out of the printer, do it slowly and avoid tearing the paper, if you do make sure you have all the pieces of paper.

Follow the following steps:

2) Prepare the envelopes for loading.
Important : * Press down firmly on the edges of the envelopes to make the folds crisp. Also, press firmly on the area that corresponds to the edges of the back flap.
* Remove any curling by holding the edges diagonally and bending them gently.
* If the edges of the envelopes are inflated or curled, place the envelope on a flat surface. With a pen, press down while moving it from the center toward the edges of the envelope.
* Ensure that no curl or puff exceeds 1/8 in. (3mm).
