I have an old deskjet 693c and every time I try to print it stops when the paper starts loading and the feed paper light blinks.

shard said:How does the printer know? Easy, it has a little brain in it, that likes to be a real prick and jam itself, just to annoy you, and make you take it to a shop to get fixed, where there is works just fine, but costs you bundles of money, trying to figure out why its jammed, when in the end, it was just the printer waving the middle finger at you, while luaghing.

I'll have to check the model of our old DeskJet, but it's barely been used and I can send you the rollers from it if you're brave enough to take it apart and replace the roller unit yourself.
