so ago, my Dad's HP Officejet L7580 stopped working: some paper had gotten jammed in it. Although I cleaned it out thoroughly, the printer still refused to acknowledge that the jam was cleared. After spending several days trying https://nealpoole.com/blog/2011/03/clearing-a-fake-paper-jam-in-an-hp-printer/ to clear the phantom jam, we ended up buying a new printer (the L7580 having long since been out ofwarranty). Then today, I decided to take another crack at fixing the printer. After a lot of false starts http://manualmachine.com/hp/deskjet-5550/904883-user-manual/page:20/ and dead ends from Google, I managed to stumble upon a very helpful post on fixya.com: … Here's another from the Hp Forum, but I myself have tried once, but if it's actual paper jam, this wont help. hp deskjet If in case there's mechanical issue, this will definitely help you..

After removing the duplexer, grip any of the four rubber rollers and attempt to rotate in either direction, if they don't move freely with little effort, then continue with these instructions.Begin: Take the first paper clip and contact the lower two brass rectangles, this fools the device into believing the duplexer is installed, keep the contacts bridged (don't remove your hand or the paper clip until Step 4.) There's no electrocutionrisk. Press the "OK" button on the control panel to pretend the paper jam iscleared. Carefully observe the pair of white gears on the left, if they seem to clutch, stall, skip or freeze then you have paper shards which are causing thejam. Using a firmer grip or pliers, grip the furthest left rubber roller and rotate in either direction , the gears should rotate with your efforts and look for shards of paper in the gearteeth. Use the paper clip, toothpick or any appropriate edged tool to clear theshards. Bridge the lower con
