You need to disassemble it further. If you want to repair your printer you have to go deeper anyway. Again I'm not with the printer so I'm going off assumptions, but it seems like it is a mechanical issue. Looking at the cycle visible in your video I'd think the motor controller is noticing that there is too much voltage required to move the printhead a certain distance (because of a mechanical issue) and halts the movement, it assumes there is some kind of jam, then finally it attempts to eject possible jammed paper (the bar that spins fast). Certainly there is no quick fix like "press this button twice" or something like that. Your in luck because it is not too difficult and someone on this forum actually made a guide to get the cover off. That would be enough to get a better idea of what is causing your issue. Then again there is no guarantee you will find the issue or that it's possible to resolve. If that is beyond your capabilities find a repair shop or some other solution thebestcpu mentioned.
