If the printer displays an E16 error, but a visual inspection of the paper path reveals no obvious jams, the issue might be with a less visible obstruction or a faulty component. Check for small torn paper fragments, debris, or obstructions inside the printer. Also, the problem may lie with a mechanical failure or sensor malfunction requiring professional service.
