Carefully examine the printer's paper path, checking for any visible paper remnants. Open all accessible doors and trays. Use a flashlight if necessary. Sometimes, a tiny piece of paper can prevent printing. Refer to your printer's manual for detailed instructions on how to check and clear paper jams.
