Dell 5100cn printer is stuck saying that it is paper jam?

My printer telling me that he's stuck, but I disassembled and there is nothing in it. Is there a way to reset all of its sensors.

Well... you're handy with tools? It's time to start Diggin ' in the machine.

I have included a picture of the expansion of parts in this area.

1. turn off the printer and unplug the power cord.
2. remove the imaging drum unit and set aside
3. using a Phillips screwdriver #2 (strongly suggest a magnetic tip), remove the 4 "tap live" of keeps his record cpl on the frame of the printer.
4. lift the left side of the registration assy. As you continue to raise the left side, slide the left unit to disengage the gears. Take note of the right side, as it is still connected. There may not be enough slack in wiring and you may need to loosen the wiring of the 'fixing', so you can lift the regi on the right end unit. (we don't want to play with the connections, if possible).
5. Regi-sensor and actuator should now be exposed. The actuator is point "1" in the drawing and shaded yellow.

If you press the top of the actuator to the rear of the printer and release, he must freely spring back up-right. You should be able to view in the slot to see if there is any residual pieces of paper the sensor or actuator of jamming the paper.

If/when you put it together, make sure that any wiring down behind registration Assy is completely back in the cable 'fixing '. If this is not the case, the drum CPL can damage wiring when you re - insert into the printer.

  • My printer says there is a paper jam and there is no. How to print?

    My printer (HP Officejet Pro 8000 A809 series) work very well under Windows 7 (64 bit) for 2 years.  I had a real paper jam this morning, removed the sheet criminalized through the duplexer at the back, opens all the doors/covers and ensured that all of them were well closed/Secretary.  Now the printer tells me there is a paper jam and will not print.  I swithched the printer market several times, with and without restarting the computer, and you press the reset button several times and even got the sheets of paper to be fed through the printer by pressing the reset and power button discount.  However, I always get the error message "Paper jam", and the printer does not print.

    Any suggestions?

    After spending some time trying to get the orinter work I can now see that, although the upper paper rolls 'transfer' work in rolls 'drop down' inserting the paper from the bin are not.  I guess the paper jam broke the roller mechanism and a new printer is necessary?

    It doesn't sound like it needs to be repaired/replaced with what you described. If it is still under warranty, I recommend to contact HP support for options.

  • printer says there is a paper jam, verified and there is no will not be PRINTED

  • Printer stopped working after I removed a paper jam - Deskjet 6988

    I removed a paper jam today, according to the instructions. But since I did it, it will not be printed. The power light is, as if it's OK, but he absolutely refuses to print.

    My printer is a HP Deskjet 6988 and I am on Windows 7, 64 bit.

    Whenever I try to print, the print queue displays the print job for about a second, then he faints. I try to print again, it disappears. Then, if I do it a third time, it appears in the list and stays there, but the printer does nothing.

    After two minutes the queue no longer mentions it as the "impression". Instead, it says, "error printing". I try to delete the print job, but it just sits there, saying "error printing". It will not erase. The only way to remove it is by the printer stop or restart the computer.

    If I try to print after that stuff all over again.

    I tried closing the printer and reboot, restart the computer, power cycling (stopping the printer, unplug the cables, waiting..., plug again and restart).  I ran the Diagnostic Utility and it tells me that it works very well - well, very good for a very large paperweight.  I used troubleshooting via the Control Panel, and he said: "a print job in the print queue prevents other printing of print." But as I have already said, delete the print job does not solve the problem.  I am stuck in a loop of the removal of print jobs and nothing works.

    Help, please!

    Hey Tigger,

    It may have been stuck in the diagnostic mode - not able to move forward or backward for a time very long.

    Next time, if this never happens again, you can try a Reset of the printer:

    Here are two types of reset the base printer:

    (1) if there is a keyboard, turn it off, then on and press on # and 6 (press and hold while turning on the printer).

    (2) without a keyboard?  So unplug that LEAVE unplugged for 30 seconds to a minute.  Reconnect it.  (Be careful with this one - will not shock).

    It can become a little more complicated than that, but a basic reset sometimes "will have the printer attention" if it's just "spinning" and nothing else will not physically.

    I'm glad it works again.

    Maybe printers receive loners.   The smile.

  • Printer HP 1025NW color laserjet - damage of paper jam

    Two pieces of plastic fell out of door back when it was opened to remove a paper jam.

    Does anyone have a photo from the maintenance manual indicating where these parts must be installed?

    Now, the back door opens when the printer is running.  I guess they have to do with the back door closed locking or adjustment of the spring pressure on the black roller at rear.

    One piece is black and the other is white.

    Thank you

    I looked in the user manual and illustrations only and reference is made to the access door back on page 116 jam that addresses by removing a paper from the printer. Since it is a hardware issue, I would call into HP Total Care. The USA and Canada customer number is 800-474-6836. Other clients can find the contact information here. I hope this helps.

    It is plugged in USB, but he thinks that it is not. If I use the commands to the printer, it said 'prepare' and then returns to "place the scanner option '.  If I try to scan from Mac system preferences, I get the message that it can't communicate with the printer because it can be turned off or not connected to USB.

    Hello

    ·        What is the operating system on your laptop Windows Vista or Windows 7)?

    ·        Where is the printer connected (to the desktop or the router)?

    Check if the printer is already connected.

    If Windows Vista installed on the laptop

    (a) go to control panel

    (b) select the printer and check to see if the printer is already listed. If so try to print a test page and check what is happening.

    If Windows 7 is installed on the laptop

    (a) go to devices and printers

    (b) check if the printer is already listed. If so try to print a test page and check what is happening.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • Printer has paper, but the computer says that it is paper and print not web

    I have trouble getting the computer to recognize that the printer has paper. The printer prints copies that I put in, but when I want to print from the web, it doesn't let me do; He told me just the printer's paper. I printed a few pages on the web yesterday without any problem at all. I have a HP Deskjet F2430.

  • To access a medical database, a software print said I need now of TLS 1.1.  Printing the program says that if I get the good Lion 10.7.5 OX I should get the Safari 7.0 or higher with him.  I can't find the procedure to download Safari.

    Friends:

    I have a MacBook Pro - 2.3 GHz Intel Core i 5.  MEM at 1333 MHZ 4 GB DDR3.  My MAC OS X LIon is version 10.7.5.  MY current version of Safari is 6.1.6.

    I tried to connect to a medical/pharmacy/base database program and told me that I don't have a high enough version of TLS.  I have 1.0 and 1.1 is required.  The Lion of MAC OX 10.7.5 should have a version of Safari 7 that TLS 1.1 in - level items or can be upgraded to the level of TLS 1.1.  I looked at my app updates and do not find the update of Safari to 7.   No idea where in the system support or at the Apple retail I can get the update?  Thank you.

    Safari 7 is a very outdated version of Safari.

    Update of Safari, the only is to update your Mac to the new OS X El Capitan. Install it the latest Safari version 9.1.2.

    So see if your Mac can run El Capitan > update of OS X El Capitan - Apple Support

    An alternative would be to use the Firefox browser that still supports v10.7 > https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-download-and-install-firefox-mac

  • OfficeJet 4630: Says printer connected to the network, but computer says that it is not connected or idle

    I can't print to our hp officejet printer range 4630.  The printer says that it is connected to our home wireless network.  However, he said that it is inactive or not connected to the network on my mac.  The only way it will print sometimes is if I switch to a wireless network that is named the same as the printer.  AirPrint does not work.  We have a Linksys router.  Not sure if this is the problem or not.  I ran all kinds of diagnostic impressions on the printer and all say that it is connected.  I also tried to put the ip address into my web browser and it does not find the printer when it is connected to our home network.  Help, please!

    Thanks for trying my earlier recommendations. In my view, the problem you are experiencing may be with your wireless router. Normally, I would have you make sure that it is configured correctly, but you cannot access the built-in Web server.

    I want to try to set a static IP address, so we can try to get in the EWS. Please continue here: printer does not maintain the wireless connection

    A little luck? If you were able to set a static IP address, please try and access the built-in Web server. Follow the steps below:

    1. open EWS (use my earlier recommendations) printers

    2. go to the Network tab

    3. network protocols

    4. Select enable IPv4 ONLY

    Now with IPv4 enabled, you should be able to print wireless.

    If this isn't the case, you will need your router company to make sure that the multicast is enabled, Hello Protocol is enabled, mac filtering is disabled and ask them to check if there are updates the firmware for the router and the router's firewall check to make sure that it does not obstruct the communication

    The following ports are also used by your HP device and may need to be opened on your firewall configuration

    Incoming (UDP) ports are ports of destination on the computer while outgoing ports (TCP) are ports of destination on the HP device

    Incoming ports (UDP)

    Outbound ports (TCP)

    137, 139, 427, 9100, 9220, 9500
