ok. I am trying to print out a birthday card that I made in Paint for my little brother, he is turning 11. But, my printer is sort of slacking. I already print out the front cover and all i need is the back and for some reason it says that there is something jammed or it says that i need to take it out and put it back in again but it isnt working. If i cant print it today, in like an hour, my brother will have no birthday card from me.:( oh ya and my printer is an HP Deskjet 5150

Try opening the cover of the printer. Check for jams, sounds like there isn't one. Ensure the print cartridges are insatalled properly. Close the cover, unplug the printers power and USB. Shut down the computer. Plug everything back in. Turn on the computer. Check the print queue and ensure there are no documents waiting to print. Try putting one piece of paper in at a time. Try again. Might work, might not.
