You saved my printer from the landfill! Thank you. After I moved cross-country, my printer kept getting a paper jam/carriage can't move error. I didn't pack my ink separate from my printer and I had ink that spilled out. After watching this video, I cleaned the plastic ribbon/tape that you said is a sensor for the carriage and my error finally cleared. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much for this video! It totally saved, my purchase of a brand new printer yesterday that failed out of the box - funny the store warned that "they don't make them like they used to" when I wouldn't take the upsell on coverage. The store was right and HP, shame on you. Without this TH-cam video, I'd have returned the machine today. Finicky cheep stuff but great when they are working. Thanks again!!
Thanks so much! After the real first step - cussing furiously - being told to turn the printer upside down and carefully inspect for tiny bits of debris fixed my problem, even though my printer is a laser, not an officejet.
Thanks for the video. Will give it a try. HP Service Centre said there isn't any parts to change (which I think it cannot be) and asked me to change to a new printer!!!
In my case the little lever that's supposed to pop back up after a page passes over it just didn't pop back up, and so the printer kept thinking there was a page there. A little sewing machine oil and it's moving as it should again, no more jam error.
Hi, sorry.but nothing helped. All sensors are okay, position sensor from the printer head cleaned, nothing. Still got paper jam. Are there optical sensors in the printerhead they can be cleaned. A have a lot of Spraydust in the printing section. Correction: I fixed it!!. At the backside, there’s a flap for removing jammed paper. And at the upper right side there’s a little springloaded lever. And this lever was stuck. And why? The tiny spring wasn’t in place anymore and triggered a sensor(paper jam). I partly disassembled the printer- was easy, corrected the spring and it worked. Now i saved a lot of money and had a chance to clean up some parts. BTW, your video helped me.
I am getting 2 errors first paper jam despite no paper. I tried partial reset but paperjam error still shows up. Not sure about diagnostic in your video. When do you know to change out board?
I like this guy's voice and accent. Im getting an Asian accent but it's like ... I can't explain it especially since I usually find an Asian accent difficult for me or respectfully sort of harsh or rude. This guy. Wow. 😍. It made me feel so light... even the song Ok so I typed this comment before the guy was revealed at the end not knowing whether it really was Asian or not. I feel like I have a crush. lol.
for the clear tape, i accidentally removed and don't know how to install it back, does anyone can help? it's for the left side, i didn't see any hook there to hole the tape.
My printer was used 1 time and I started getting the paper jam, I've done everything it says to do, but still it says paper jam, I think I'm going back to the Epson
hi kevin or any clued-up reader 🙂 my hp officejet pro 8600 gives paper jam error on the front led panel due to false message caused by a cracked piece in a ? roller [according to a technician] - i want to use the scanner but the jam error prevents accessing the scan menu or any other menu, how can i bypass the error message to access the scan function as i will now use the 8600 as a scanner only... any ideas?

Glad I watched. Helped me find the sensor that was askew and causing the error message. I was going to buy a new printer!
None of these ended up being my problem, but I can appreciate a good tutorial :D I have a slightly different model too.

1:30 you made my day 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
This video is my favorite video on TH-cam of all time! You are brilliant! I sent a donation :)

Thank you! This was both informative and hilarious!

Thank you for saving my printer and making me laugh for hours on a formerly drab day!
Ridiculous! HP printers should work. I'm not a technician. Therefore, I now have to go buy ANOTHER printer. There's no paper jam no matter what I do.
Thank you so much for this video! This saved me from tossing this printer and getting a new one.
OMG You're Awesome I love the turn it upside down and Shake it and the river dance chaser....
Thank you so much!!!!!! You’re an angel

Kevin I love all of your videos.
Many thanks!
So mine had a broken plastic gear that drives the "sucker"... where would i find a replacement gear for that shaft?
Edit: nvm you mention your site

Yes, it worked

hi, Kevin please make a video on how to fix the printer head missing from HP 8610. I already clean contacts, reset, etc. but nothing works. please

Hi Kevin,
brilliant videos.
My hp officejetpro 9012 dispays "print carrier cannot move". do you know how to fix that?
Do you have any idea why does Epson xp415 take multi pages at once?
Maybe. Check the spring in the pickup arm. It may be broken.
我想知道HP8022有没有替代的墨盒～他家墨盒也太贵了…
不用替代墨盒，用原来的灌墨就行。
geeeeeeeeeeee shaking upside down my printer, helped thank you :DDDDDD and we want autopilots in the cars :DDDDDD fuck
😅
HP printers are fucking gatbage
Please define "gatbage". :)
