Lawsuit[edit]

Gibson Guitar Corporation filed a lawsuit November 18. 2010 in Federal court, the Central District of California, against WowWee USA and their Paper Jamz guitars charging trademark infringement.[2][3] The lawsuit claimed that the Paper Jamz guitars copied the looks of some of Gibson's famous guitars, the Gibson Les Paul, the Gibson Flying V, the Gibson Explorer, and the Gibson SG. On December 21, 2010 Gibson was granted a request for an injunction against WowWee and retailers in the United States which were selling Paper Jamz guitars: Walmart, Amazon, Big Lots stores, Kmart Corporation, Target Corporation, Toys 'R' Us, Walgreens, Brookstone, Best Buy, eBay, Toywiz.com, and Home Shopping Network (HSN).[4][5][6]

The case was dismissed with prejudice (dismissed permanently) January 11, 2011 by Federal Judge R. Gary Klausner.[7][8] According to Gibson CEO, Henry Juszkiewicz, WowWee later paid Gibson an undisclosed amount of money to license the likeness of Gibson guitars.[9]

Paper Jamz products continued manufacture into 2011 and then seem to have ceased production.

When working with any printer, it's inevitable that you'll encounter a paper jam. The following is a general guide for removing paper that has become stuck in one or more locations. Although most modern printers are similar in design, you may have to make slight adjustments to these steps, depending on the printer brand and model.

Warning

You'll want to avoid pulling the stuck paper out from under the front cover if possible, as it may cause damage to the printer. Instead, pull it from the back of the printer or paper tray.

NotePaper jamz

Read through all the following sections to avoid damage to your printer.

Locate and remove any paper stuck in the loading tray

  1. Remove any loose paper in the loading tray.
  2. Press the Resume button on the front of the printer.
Note

If the paper jam is cleared, skip to ensure the printer carriage can move freely section. Otherwise, continue with the steps below.

  1. Remove stuck paper one sheet at a time, starting in the middle.
  2. Check for any remaining bits of paper.
Note

Clearing the jam from the rear of the printer

If you can't get to the paper jam from the loading tray, follow the instructions to clear the paper from the rear of the printer. Usually, the back of the printer has either a rear access panel or a two-sided printing accessory.

Note

The type of rear access door differs by printer brand and model. If you cannot find or remove the rear access panel, check the printer manufacturer's website for specific details.

Removing a rear access panel

  1. Locate the knob or access tab on the back of the printer by or on the panel itself. If it's a knob, move it to the Unlocked position.
  2. Remove the panel and carefully pull out the jammed paper.
  3. Locate and clear away any small bits of paper that remain.
  4. Replace and secure the rear panel.

Remove the two-sided printing accessory to clear the paper jam

  1. Press both RELEASE buttons on either end of the module at the same time and remove it.
  2. Remove the panel and carefully pull out the jammed paper.
  3. Locate and clear away any small bits of paper that remain.
  4. Push the module back on and snap it into place.
Note

If the paper jam is cleared, skip to ensure the printer carriage can move freely section. Otherwise, continue to the next section below.

  1. Press the button on top of the module and open the door.
  2. Remove the panel and carefully pull out the jammed paper.
  3. Locate and clear away any small bits of paper that remain.
  4. Close the rear module door.
Note

If the paper jam is cleared, skip to ensure the printer carriage can move freely section. Otherwise, continue to the next section below.

Pulling the paper out from under the front cover

If all the previous steps have failed, you may attempt to remove the jammed paper by pulling it out from under the front cover CAREFULLY and SLOWLY. Remember, as stated above, this step is generally not recommended and should only be a last resort, as it could cause damage to the printer.

Paper Jamz CountryTip

If you have a laser printer, you may need to remove the toner cartridge before you can get full access to the paper.

Ensure the printer carriage can move freely

Paper
  1. Disconnect the printer from power by unplugging the power cord from the power outlet.
  2. Watch the carriage to see if it moves fully to the right side of the printer and out of sight. Do not force the carriage to move if it's stuck, as this may damage your printer.
Note

If the paper jam is cleared, skip to the testing the printer section.

  1. Carefully remove the ink cartridge(s).
  2. Without removing the drawer, remove any paper in the loading tray.
  3. Remove the two-sided printing accessory (module) or rear access door.
  4. With your fingers, rotate the rollers toward the top of the printer for three full rotations.
  5. Replace the two-sided printing accessory (module) or rear access door.
  6. Replace the ink cartridges.
  7. Plug in and turn on your printer.

Reloading and testing the printer

Once you've removed the jam, cleared away any remaining bits of paper, and ensured the print carriage can move without issue, test your printer.

  1. Put some inkjet paper into the loading tray and slide it into place.
  2. Print a test page by performing a self-test. Usually, a self-test can be initiated by pressing and holding the Resume button until the printer starts printing.

Continued problems? Possible printer hardware problems

Jamz

If the printer claims there is still a paper jam after going through the steps above, your printer may have a hardware problem. A malfunctioning roller or parts in the paper feed mechanism can make a printer think it has a paper jam.

In the case of a hardware problem, it may be possible to have the printer repaired. However, due to the low costs of printers today, it is often cheaper to buy a new printer instead of having a printer repaired.

Preventing a printer paper jam

As mentioned earlier, paper jams are an inevitability over the life of your printer. However, if you're encountering frequent paper jams, the following steps may help prevent them.

  1. If your printer has a paper tray, do not fill the tray. Overfilling the paper tray is frequently causes paper jams.
  2. Many printers have sliding mechanisms that allow different types and sizes of paper to be fed into the printer. If the slider is not correctly positioned, it can cause a paper jam.
  3. Use standard office paper. Folded, labeled, and specialty paper can often cause jams because they have irregular dimensions. If you're uncertain which types of paper your printer accepts, consult the printer documentation.
  4. If you are printing multiple pages, do not mix the paper sizes.
  5. Make sure your printer paper is correctly seated into the slot or tray.
  6. Examine the printer for any debris before printing. Previous paper jams, torn paper, printing labels, or other foreign objects in the printer can cause reoccurring jams.
