Canon Ivy Mini Printer says it's jammed no matter what I do to fix it.

I've had my little Canon Ivy for a few years and never had a problem with it until about 2 weeks ago. Anytime I try to print anything, it says the printer is jammed.

I've restarted it, restarted my phone, reconnected it, checked the printer paper, taken the paper out and reloaded it, and nothing has worked. Can anyone help me?

Found this as I was having the same problem and it turned out to be because I was loading the paper upside down...

THANK YOU! This was exactly the problem. Flipped over my paper, and it worked perfectly. I love how the Canon tech support response was to send the unit in for service. Ridiculous.

thanks again.

My paper isn't upside down. I've had the thing for about 6 years. Seems like planned obsolescence. Should I get a Kodak next time instead? I've tried finding actual product support and I get caught in a loop taking me back to the useless product page.
