I am using Cannon MP160 Printer from last one year and my printer was working fine with my laptop in which i am using windows vista. I have to use my printer daily for my office work. Few days back my printer had a paper jam and my printer stopped working. Somehow I have removed the paper from my printer and after that when I try to print anything from my printer at that time my printer is not responding. Please tell me how to start my printer working again.
It looks like there may be some part of paper left in your printer and because that your printer is finding difficulty in printing documents. Just check again properly in your printer whether there are any pieces of paper left or not. Make sure at the time of checking the printer you are not doing anything wrong with the other part of your printer. After doing that try to print any documents again in your printer and after that check whether your problem gets solved or not?
If you are still facing the same problem after checking your printer perfectly then try to solve this problem resetting your Cannon MP160 Printer.

First try this both trick and then let me know whether your problem gets solved or not. Hopefully you will be able to solve this issue as soon as possible.
