Printer says it's jammed but it isn't!

Hi there

I hope someone can help me, please. I have an Epson Stylus SX600FW all-in-one printer. It's about nine months old and has been fine until today:mad:. It suddenly decided that it had a paper jam but it hasn't:confused:. I've been printing from it this morning with no problems. All it does is tell me how to get rid of a paper jam, not how to stop thinking it's got one!

I do hope someone can solve this problem for me. I've turned the machine off and back on again and it hasn't helped.

Thanks in anticipation!

    It's probably that something is covering one of the sensors. Disconnect from the mains, then try carefully winding the mechanism round a bit using a screwdriver - the gearing should be exposed if you open the printer up.
