Is Your Pixma MG3220 Giving You a Headache?

Mine has been for the last couple of months.
 I have the same Samsung I came from Turkey with that my husband bought me. My Pixma has been used for documents I need to bring my husband here. I have come to need more documents and over the last few months, I have gotten lots of errors. One has been E03, (paper jammed) or There is no paper in your tray, etc. 

  The, first thing I did (my Samsung doesn't have a DVD, readers... for those of you not familiar, DVD drives are going to be outdated in a couple of years, and my husabnd and I have been speculating this since 2013, that by 2020 or sooner, DVD drives will be a thing of a past... Hey, with TB drives out there, who wants a DVD drive?...) I am not here to debate that today, though... Anyway. I went onto Canon webpage, (see, you don't need a DVD for that) and found the latest update matching my Model and Number of my Canon Printer.
Next, I made sure I had my wifi set and connected to the printer and computer. It all went well. But it would not print. I tried everything. I called the Canon Tech support and he walked me through a couple of things. 

He could not figure it out either.So we hung up.  One of the things I noticed, at first, it wasn't grabbing my paper with the rubber rollers. So,(after turning the printer off)  I took electronic cleaner (a can of air, and a skinny straw attached: You can buy it in any eletronic sections in stores. Or Office Max or Staples) I then sprayed it, opened the back, sprayed it again. 
Then I pressed the button with the screw driver and wrench next to it (next to my scan button) And I pressed it until I saw the "6". Then I ran different weights of paper through it. It works as good as new.
