2. If the printer does not attempt to feed paper but gives a jam condition

paper sensor lever. I am not sure where this lever is on this printer but
it
will be hidden in the paper path and is likely a spring loaded plastc
lever. It
should move freely and spring back to its normal positio. You may have to
remove the covers to see it. Sometimes you can free these levers by gently
pushing card stock through the printer path

i removed the cover and don't see any paper stucked and
i think i found that lever,it is linked from paper path to PCB of
printer,but i think it is in wright position...
when i stik a paper the lever moves away from PCB,but when there is no paper
it is stickted to PCB betwen to litlle plastic parts that i think is paper
sensor...
i am hoping tha there are more then one lever,but i think that paper sensor
is dead....

I think this printer only has one sensor, so you are probably correct. The
sensor or the PCB has a problem.
Is the printer in warranty? If so call Canon or your supplier and get them to
replace/repair the printer.
Good luck
