When printing a 13 page document, the printer stopped and juddered a couple of lines.
It then emitted a short grinding noise as if a gearing wheel was turning on a seized shaft.
Printer then displayed error code Fx01

A quick look does not identify any jammed gearing/mechanism. Paper is all clear an the ink cartridge carrier moved silently so assuming its the paper management mechanism which has failed.

A google of the error code suggests a Windows software problem .

Any thoughts? Not keen to mess about with Windows as I am likely to screw up the PC :(

PS - Linking printer via wifi, no cable.

EDIT - Now showing W-02 error :(

Try printing from a phone or tablet if you have one.
If it works you know it's the pc not the printer.

Turn printer off at plug and back on again.. a reboot might sort
