How to clear a paper jam for a Cannon MP160?

You also could hold the expulsion button (it has the ';paper with the arrow'; icon) for a few secconds and the gears will move and push the paper (or remaining paper if there was any tear) out. Good luck!How to clear a paper jam for a Cannon MP160?
First I would open the printer up as best you can, check to see that nothing is obstructing the paper path, if you look inside the printer on the left hand side at the front you will see a gear or two, reach in with your fingers and turn the gear one or two full rotations, just to make sure nothing is obstructing them, take all the paper out of the paper tray section and look down the paper slot, check to make sure no paper is stuck in there, look in the front door and see if any paper is stuck there and around the rubber rollers, turn the printer off for 2 minutes and start it again, if you still have a problem you need a printer tech to help you, we can strip the printer of it's case fast, and if you don't know where to find the plastic clips on the printer you will snap them off and then the plastic outer case can not be clipped back in place, hope this helped and good luck.How to clear a paper jam for a Cannon MP160?
Why does it say paper jam when there IS no paper jam? I swear to god, one of these days I'm going to kick this thing out the window.
Well you should be able to open up a panel and pull the paper out. Be sure to take it slow but have a firm grip. You don't want to rip the paper.
