[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] HP LJII msg "paper out", won't print

mvolo@uncecs.edu (Michael R. Volow) (09/04/90)

Our Hewlett Packard Laserjet II suddenly has stopped printing. 
The message on the LCD is PAPER OUT. We have checked the paper tray,
the paper level, and the printing cartridge, and all look fine.

Before we call repair, is there anything simple we can check. I looked
in the paper tray slot, and there is a black plastic finger hanging
loosely down, and freely moveable. Compared to another HPLJII in our
office, it looks the same.

Thanks in advance.
