How do I check for paper jams in my Canon MP287 printer?

To check for paper jams, open all the accessible covers of the printer (front, rear, and top). Carefully inspect the paper path for any torn or crumpled paper. Gently remove any jammed paper, ensuring you pull it out in the direction of the paper path to avoid tearing it further. Also, check the paper guides to ensure they are properly adjusted for the paper size being used.
