"paper is jammed" "at the transport" error message-Canon Mp830 (false error)

I keep getting this error every time I print. It tells me there is
paper stuck in the rear section of the printer.. I check, but nothing
is there..

To print I close the front compartment then click ok after first
opening and closing the drawer where the paper is in the front (using
the front loader not the rear in fact). but after every page it says
this.

Has anyone run into this or found a fix?

Thanks
