Epson Wf-2540 Adf Won't Work

When I try to copy or scan from the ADF, it won't pull the papers through. The message is "Paper Jam" and makes me walk through a series to check for jam. There is not jam, it just seems unable to "grab" the paper. I tried the resetting to factory defaults, but not luck. Any other suggestions????
