Does it even try? What does it do when you try to print? Have you made any changes to your system recently?

no i've taken it apart and throughly cleaned and checked for anything that could be blocking it, should the wheels move if the printer is off and i turn them, do the wheels go counter clockwise, or clock wise if i should be able to turn them manually, when i try nothing no movement, do you know were the mechanism  is that turns the rollers,

Well, I would have to see the printer to make such details confirmed... Why don't you just get a new printer? They are cheap... Maybe this one's just too old... Nothing lasts forever...
