I have had this printer for a few years now, and it has been fine, but now it will not take any paper through. It goes through all of the nozzle cleaning processes, then makes the clonking noise, as if to drag the paper through, but cannot manage it. I have looked for any obstructions and the feed mechanism seems to work, but it just will not print.
Any ideas folks? Is it time for a new printer?:shrug:

Hurrah, it lives once more. I found this link, which may be useful to some.

I scrolled through the problems, and found that I had to reselect the paper feed to get it working.
Thanks for all the help folks.
Chas, I think you had it spot on, but I couldn't find a feed select switch, so had to do it via the screen.

Thanks Chaz. I have now printed a couple of more images, and I must say this is not a bad printer. I am also using some cheap ink replacements from "Moreinks", and they seem fine.
