HP 2575 Printer Paper Jam Error w/no paper jam
I have an HP 2575 All-In-One printer and when I went to print something, the Paper Jam Error or misfeed message displays. There is no paper jam. I've tried removing all paper from the tray, turning it off and on, unplugging it, cleaning the rollers, and still...paper jam! I don't understand how to fix this issue and I desperately need my printer! Please help if you can

if you switch off and on - does that reset
have you opened all the doors on the machine and checked nothing there at all
is it still under warrenty at all
you may get the reset sequence off HP

this may help to reset the printer

I have tried something like this before, cant remember or find the sequence
Found this on another site - not sure if it applies - so you may want to try at your own risk
hold cancel then right arrow together,take the plug off then put it on again

Thanks again, but no such luck. I did have a ray of hope, as this actually made the printer display screen change from paper jam to a green screen with a 12345 on it. But alas, the paper jam came right back

Take some covers off and see if you can find the sensor. There may be a small piece of something blocking it and causing the printer to think there's a paper jam.
