C5550 -How do I reset a persistant "Clear paper Jamm" error mesage?

Hi,
I have a photosmart c5550 all in one printer. I had a paper jam and cleared it using the instructions from the user manual. I have actually done this several times now, and am absolutely sure that there is no paper jam at this point in time. The printer resets to the "clear paper jam" error state on power up. I would like to know the procedure to do a hard system reset, to reset the printer. The reset procedure of removoing the power cord does nothing to clear this persistant error. Does anyone know the proper procedure to do a hard reset?
Thanks,
Phil

The steps in this video will resolve persistant paper jam messages.

  • Printer MP480 - How do we reset printer for jammed paper when it is NOT jammed?

    My printer is stuck on clear jammed paper message.  But there is no jammed paper.  How do I reset printer so I can proceed to print?

    Hi arlington34,
    Since you have already verified that there are no paper jams in the printer, with a flashlight or other bright light, please check the paper feed area of the printer and verify that there are no other obstructions in the printer that may be causing the error. Once this has been done, please look inside of the printer where the inks are located and ensure that there are no obstructions in there that may be causing the print head not to move freely. Next, please remove and reseat all of the ink cartridges in the printer. Once all of these steps have been performed, if you still experience the same error, we can perform a roller cleaning on the printer to see if this will resolve the issue. To do this, please follow the steps located at the link below:
    Performing a Roller Cleaning
    If you still experience the same issue after performing at least three roller cleanings, the printer will require servicing.  Please call or email us at one of the methods on the Contact Us page to obtain your servicing options.

    Hi,
    If you are getting the message to Contact Support there is no other option.
    When Mountain Lion first came out and you got this message it did appear to get sorted for free.
    Start here
    http://www.apple.com/uk/support/itunes/
    Click the Contact Support at the bottom of the menu
    In the next page use the right hand Pane and the iTunes Store link.
    after that generally follow "Manage Account" type links.
    The process is "trying to answer questions"  but you will eventually be offered an email Link.
    Use that and explain the issue.
    Generally the issue tends to be something specific about your account that only Apple Support can change.

  • How to continue double sided scan if paper feed error.

    I was scanning a double sided 100+ page document in a paper feed single side scanner. Upon completed scan of the first side, adobe acrobat prompted to turn over the stack and begin scan of the reverse side of the last page. After doing this the paper went into my scanner crooked somehow (feeder errror perhaps) and caused a paper jam. After fixing the paper jam and pressing continue on the popup... Adobe Acrobat canceled the rest of the scan instead of prompting to continue the scan after the error. This is extraordinarily aggravating. How to I go about continuing the scan process so that the pdf document is made in proper order??? I Googled "How to continue Adobe Acrobat pdf scan of reverse side if paper jam" and similar search phrases and found NO relevant results explaining how to do this.

    Which scanner, OS platform and acrobat version are you using?

  • How do I reset the font drop-down menu?

    In the font drop-down menu, all used fonts are listed on top of the rest. Now I got a long pile of used fonts, but only two fonts among them are most frequently used, and I want to keep only these two on top of the drop-down menu. How do I reset the list (clear the history)? Thanks.

    Mine shows only the last 6 used fonts. Note that you can option click the fonts drop down menu to show them only by name, without their preview, thus saving you some space.

    You leave us to guess what you think is the "latest version".
    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • How do you reset Safari if Reset has been changed to 'Clear History and Website Data'

    On my Macbook Pro, OS X 10.10.2, How can I reset Safari if the Reset has been replaced with 'Clear History and Website Data'

    Hi feijoada (and hi Yang ,
    The 'Form Values' file stores various autofill details - you didn't mention that file earier - did you also try moving that to the Desktop and retrying Safari to see if that was the problem? It can be found in the /Users/YourUsername/Library/Safari folder as well.

  • How do I reset the furthest page read in iBooks from an HTML Widget?

    Our training department just got a bunch of iPads and I'm writing some custom HTML widgets for iBooks for them for testing, in-class activities, etc.
    On the last page I have a link to clear all the forms and return to the first page.  Like this: <a href="ibooks:///#page(1)">Click here</a>
    That all works fine but the next time the book is opened it auto-syncs to the FURTHEST page read (the last page with the test on it) instead of the LAST page read (the first page- from the link mentioned above).
    Basically we want the link to reset the furthest page read to the first page of the book when they finish the test so that the next person to use the iPad goes to page one automatically.
    Does anyone have an idea of how to do something like completely clear the iBook cache?
    Much obliged!

    This was hand-coded HTML, CSS, jQuery/Javascript with a PHP file on our server that processes answers and emails them to our training director.
    I use Brackets exclusively for coding.
    Hope this helps you.

  • When I access my google e-mail account on the I-pad my inbox has at least 6 e-mails with no sender and no subject (absent via I-phone, Mac or PC) I cannot delete them as they cannot be selected- how do I stop them and clear the ones there now?

    When I access my google e-mail account on the I-pad my inbox has at least 6 e-mails with no sender and no subject (absent via I-phone, Mac or PC) I cannot delete them as they cannot be selected- how do I stop them and clear the ones there now?

    Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • How can I reset messages.app?

    I'm going to be completely honest here, a while ago I spammed a friend to the point where I froze my own messages app on my mac and now when I try to re-open it the spinning colorful pinwheel just pops up and never stops. Yes I learned a lesson but I'd like to obviously use the app again so I was wondering how I can reset the app. Thanks for everyones support! 

    HI,
    I have never come across a situation like this.
    If you try to send a Super IM over the AIM service it normally will take a few minutes (literally) to come back with a  response that it has messed up
    I have not tried it with a Jabber service.
    There are ways of deleting one or some of the .plists involved that can cause a reset of sorts but these are normally used for other things.
    I have never had a Message "Stuck" in such a way that the App Hangs so that a .plist might have details of the IM it is sending.
    With Messages shut down open the Console app (In Applications/Utilities)
    In the System Diagnostic Reports do you have anything for Messages
    It may look like this

    Now go to the All Messages section of Console and try starting Messages.
    Do you get additional info (there may be a reveal triangle to open) ?
    Things to try.  (one at a time)
    Use the Finder > Go Menu > Hold ALT key > Select Library method to open the Home Folder/Library (That is normally invisible)
    Open Preferences.
    In here find the following .plists
    com.apple.ichat.AIM.plist
    com.apple.ichat.Jabber.plist
    com.apple.imagent.plist
    If it was an AIM Message try deleting (Drag to Trash) the AIM one.
    If Jabber (GoogleTalk or Facebook or other) they try the Jabber one.
    After the deletion restart Messages.
    If deleting the service .plist did not work try deleting com.apple.imagent.plist
    If it happens to be an iMessages IM then delete both of these
    com.apple.imessage.bag.plist
    com.apple.imservice.iMessage.plist
    You will need to restart Messages again.  The second of these is likely to need you to re-enter your Apple ID.
    To be clear.
    Qith Messages shut down then Delete one .plist (AIM or Jabber)
    Restart Messages.
    If it does not work shut down (force Quit) Mesages
    Remove the  imagent .plist
    Restart Messages.
    If a iMessages conversation then delete both .plists and restart Messages (you may need to re-enter your Apple ID)

  • I have a 6 year old ipod registered to a old account I can no longer access. How do I reset it?

    6 years ago I decided to get in shape. So I bought an iPod to listen too music when i worked out. I used it mostly for audio books. Three years ago we bought a new home and I started working out at home. My iPod has sat unused ever since then in my gym bag...until this week. I bought myself a new car and the new car has a hook up for my iPod. So I dig it out and plug it in. Works great in the car.
    So I decide it's time to get some more music and I make myself up a new Apple account, plug in the iPod and (insert sad music here). iTunes doesn't like my old iPod. The reason is the iPod was made with an old Apple account under an old e-mail address at our old house. An e-mail address I no longer have and with a password I no longer remember.
    So I have iTunes up and running and I even dowloaded into it my Beatles collections but I can't get iTunes and the iPod to talk to each other because they're basically set up under different accounts. How can I reset my iPod to it's factor settings or whatever so i can start syncing it again with this new account. There is nothing on it that I can't put back on so I don't mind wiping it clear.

    I should add that I have tried the online on how to restore but it says it has to be through iTunes and iTunes doesn't even recognize the iPod at this point. The iPod is an iPod 2 classic I believe.

    Have you tried a reset to see if it resumes after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
