Printer doesn't work.

[Chukchi Husky]

I have a Lexmark P4350 All in One Inkjet Printer. Whenever I try to print something the printer either thinks there is no paper in the tray, even though I put some in there, or it will pull it down at an angle and say there's no paper or a jam, or it will pull the paper down far enough to think it's loaded and it will try to print, but the paper stays in the tray. I have tried putting in one sheet of paper and several sheets, and I have tried aligning the paper differently, but nothing works.

Open up the case and see if it's dusty in there, or if there's a scrap of something interfering with the feed mechanism. You may have to vacuum or use canned air to clean the area out. It's also possible that a little spring or connection that holds the levers which tell it if it has paper in it correctly has come loose or broken.

I don't know how to open up the printer.

Get a manual then.

I don't know where the manual for it has gone.

Google is your friend.

Anyway, inkjet printers are the spawn of satan. I would recommend having a priest perform an exorcism before attempting to work on it. ANd to be safe, sacrifice a virgin before you begin any work on it and after you finish. I would also recommend that everyone buy cheap laserjet printers unless you absolutely positively cannot live without color printing.

I looked into the paper tray and found out the problem. Someone stuck something small in there.
