Remove all printer paper from the tray and try reloading
One of the most common causes of paper jams is that the paper has simply not been loaded correctly into the printer paper feed. With this in mind, remove any paper from the tray in order to check for any jams.
Improperly Loading Paper into the Device
Loading paper that is stuck together, frayed, curled or bent can cause a jam. Overloading the paper tray, loading different thicknesses of paper in the tray or using paper that isn`t appropriate for your particular printer can all result in a jammed printer.
More often than not, repeated “paper jams” are a false alarm caused by accumulated dirt or ink on the image sensor that cause the scanner to stop. Simply cleaning the scanner can solve this problem.
A paper jam is when paper or other printed material gets stuck or lodged in a printer and cannot eject.
Document Jam means the document in the automatic document feeder (ADF) was loaded or fed improperly or was too long. The error message may be followed by Clear the scanner jam.
Turn the printer on at least once every two weeks to automatically clean the print head and prevent the nozzles from clogging. If you do not turn on the printer for a long time, the printer may malfunction.

ANSWER : Isopropyl alcohol is not recommended for rubber rollers. It dries out the rubber and hasten it’s cracking and breaking. It will do nothing to restore the grip. Those rollers are really hard to replace. It would be easy if that dumbass secondary menu really worked. None of the techs I’ve spoke to ever got into it.
