I have a Dell AIO 926 printer in perfect condition (well, I guess not any more!) and for some reason it will not feed paper. I don’t understand it because I’ve never had problems with it before, and it seems that after some time of not being used, it refuses to feed paper. Any thoughts would be great!

The paper in your printer is fed from the rear tray by a gray rubber roller. You can clean that rubber roller with a lint free cloth which is slightly dampened with formula 409 or a similar store brand cleaner. Using solvents to clean the roller will dry the rubber roller out prematurely and can cause damage to the plastic in the paper tray and in the feed area. If your hands are not small enough, a pair of needle nosed pliers or a long, wooden q-tip may help you get all of the way to the roller. Clean all of the way around the roller. It should feed the photo paper fine once the roller has been cleaned.
