Paper stops halfway, then Error 6000. CanonTS9521C

[Lisapizza77]

My printer is automatically trying to print as soon as I turn on my machine. There are no jams and it will pull in paper from the back (my usual) and go halfway, then stop and it gives me the Error Code 6000. I have tried the unplugging while on, clicking Start 5x, waiting the 60 seconds and turning it back on. Nope, still Error 6000. I love my printer and need it.
