Paper jam

So I was at work 2 hour ago and me and a friend needed to print sometime. So we press the nice icon and expect the printer to do his thing. Normally it does so why not today. But it turns out that it is a special day today. The paper was jammed. But not 1 piece of paper. O no. like 5 pieces of paper. Janking it didn’t do the trick. I torn the paper apart but that didn’t fix the jam. After looking at the printer for like 3 minutes we came to the conclusion that the only way to get the paper out was to open the printer.
But as it isn’t supposed to get jammed we had to get the screwdriver out. So after taking almost every screw out of the printer we finally got the part where the paper was jammed. A lot of poking and torning later all the paper was gone and we could put the printer back together. Now the whole point of this story is…
A printer always finds a way to get the paper jammed.
