Do you mean error code 034004?

Customer Replay

yes

Noted.
This error is caused by a paper jam.

Customer Replay

But there is no paper jammed. I have been through the process to clear the paper with no correction

Top answer

Check it one more time please:

  1. Remove the paper roller from the back.
  2. Take a flashlight and look into the paper feeder. You may find peace of
    paper.
  3. Take the paper out.
    You can get a piece of sticky tape and put it inside and stick it on the paper and take the paper out.

Thast all went OK. Now when I go to my computer and press print. It comes up and says attention required and when I press print the docuemtn does not print. Maybe I should restart my computer

Thank you for the information!
May I also ask you to restart your printer? Do you know how to do that?

Top answer

On the printer.
Also, may I ask you to do that:

  1. Pull the power cord on the printer to turn it off.
  2. And then wait for a few minutes. While you are waiting, run a restart on
    the primary computer that's also linked to the printer.
  3. Plug everything back into power and check to see if your problem is resolved.
