Sounds like a hardware problem, not an XP OS issue. Have it checked by
a printer repair tech.

Sounds MUCH like a paper jamb.
They clog with paper.

Open it (take the cover off, which should be very easy to do), and
look for any paper that's inside.
Likely, if you have an lcd screen on it,
it's flashing some sort of signal
that will translate to "Paper jam".
(meaning that you can go to the manufacturer's website (like
Hewlett Packard or Canon), and look up the printer model, and then
look up the documentation or the Troubleshooting Tips.

If all that fails, you can take it to a Tech and pay an arm and a leg
for HIM to un jamb it, or look for a new printer. (these days, the ink
is more expensive than the printer). Find an Office Depot or an Office
Max.

Good Luck!

This is a physical problem with your printer and has nothing to do with
Windows.
