 | HP officejet d135 by Sue (3/18/04 11:20 AM) reply | + / - | I am having repeated problems with paper jams with this machine. I have tried all the troubleshooting steps and still nothing. It makes a loud clicking noise when it moves the paper through then when it gets halfway through I get the paper jam message. It doesn't print anything either. I'm not sure what else to do. I would appreciate any feedback.
Thanks!!

I also have this problem (and now HATE this machine). I've used MANY HP laser printers over the years with no problem whatsoever; this was my first ink jet from them and from now on I'll stick to Epsons as I always did. OK, I feel better now. Let's continue...
Contacted HP about this supposedly jammed carriage many times and their suggestions were so basic or idiotic that I won't print them here (I tried them all to no avail anyway).
The ONLY sensible one was to clean the encoder strip (about 1/4"-wide clear mylar) that runs from side to side of the printer suspended in mid-air behind the print carriage. I used a Q-tip dipped in alcool and cleaned both sides of the strip. It SEEMED to solve the problem at first but the problem returned and cleaning didn't solve it that time.
There's another thread about this on the same site.
If someones find a solution please email everyone else on this thread. We all paid good money for this machine which I now use solely as a scanner!

Let us know if any of this works.

| Re: HP officejet d135 by ebayrich (11/17/05 10:04 AM) reply | +1 + / - | I have an HP d135 all-in-one machine. This machine keeps throwing false "paper jam" messages. It looks like a timing problem. When I reset the error message by depressing the "Enter" button the machine runs through a feed cycle where -
1 - The paper support "ears" on each side of the output area fold out of the way as if they were dropping a freshly printed document.
2 - A fresh sheet of paper feeds through the machine and stops immediately upon exiting the last set of feed rollers. The support ears do not move to drop the paper.
3 - The "paper jam" error message returns with the paper setting on the support ears.
I have never observed this machine when it operated correctly so I am not familiar with the correct operating sequence but it seems to me that the support ears should retract as the last step. Any suggestions?

| paper jam--HP officejet d135 by pbrooks259  (3/11/06 4:58 PM) reply | + / - | Hi, Rich. I believe the following thread contains the answer; you probably need to replace the service station motor; I've repaired the same problem on 2-OJ 7100s, had same "paper jam" error, sometimes "carriage is stalled" or "carriage jam." Good luck.

 | Re: HP officejet d135 by DANSANDIEGO2000 (12/26/06 10:18 AM) reply | + / - | I was hoping to find answers here, but it seems that nobody has solved this common problem.
I opened my D135, and found a small brass spring lying somewhere out of place in the printer. I speculate it is to hold a sensor "up" in a position to sense paper, a paper tray, or something else to make it operate properly. I logged into HP Live Chat, and await a response. Has anyone else found this spring lying around when investigating a phantom "paper jam"?
