Paper Jam!! Construction paper, 'bout 1/4 inch wider then my printer, is jammed. How do I get it out?

Question

The printer is an HP5740. The paper is a slightly wider then the printer pink light weight construction paper. Only about an inch is entombed in the roller. Please how do I remove it?

Thank You

Answer 1

There should be a lever on the side of the roller to remove it, following this you can easily remove the paper that's jammed and reattach the roller.

Answer 2

cut it down the middle then use a tweezer to pull it out
