If it jams every page, it is the infamous Samsung design flaw. There are dozens of reports of this problem all over the internet. The best solution: sell it or otherwise get rid of it ASAP and buy another type or model of printer. The 2nd best solution: call trained technician and ask to replace the broken part. It could be thermistor near fuser, some people say it is a photo-interrupter.

Whats happening is the feeder is slipping and not pulling the paper through the printer.. take the paper-tray out completely then use some "nail polish remover" on a cloth and apply it on the rubber band that you will see at the bottom/back. Just make sure that you unplug the printer before you do that just for safety precautions.
The rubber will become tacky again and so happy printing.. if this happens again in a few months do the same. Mine has bee working for the last six months now.

Good luck!!

This is a common problem but fix the printer, don't sell it! This is likely the exit sensor. Go see this video on YouTube: 5fJHykzkfww

Then go to eBay and get the part for about $10. It's a simple 15 minute fix and the video shows how to do it.

You'll probably have to replace that exit sensor. Cleaning might not do it. Go to YouTube and watch this video: 5fJHykzkfww

Hi,

most likly hood is your exit sensor is faulty. The printer work in this way. if it does not print out all the document. it will print again. that is why you kept getting this same issue after a jam open and close door it will print again.

Printers are only able to use paper that is within their thickness threshhold. Simply put, the stock you are using is too think for your printer. Try getting some thinner paper and see if that works

Hello,

It sounds like your fuser is causing the jame,.

when you remove the paper can you wipe the toner off the page or does it adhear to the paper ?

If it does not the fuser is causing the jam, if the toner does not wipe off the paper then the feed tires would be the cause of your jam

The fuser is at the back of the printer and will be very hot, so be careful.
