DS2 stuffed my printer with toys and now it doesn't work. Any ideas?

I found a lot of small toys and pencils etc stuffed inside and as far as i can see i've cleared everything out but it won't print, it just makes lots of thumping ad clicking noises. it will scan though. anyone know about printers? what can i try? it's relatively new (just over a year) so i don't want to throw it out but it only cost £50 so the cost of repairing might be more than it's worth...

Sounds like you have something stuck under the rollers. Turn the printer off, pull it out of where it is and open the BACK hatch and take a look.

Then you need to run your calibration programme to see if that fixes it and realign the print nozzles.

That's a good suggestion. I'll give it a try.
Thanks
