HP 970cse paper reading problem

Ok, so I have made a move internationally with my family to the country of New Zealand. In this move my parents, being that they are parents, decided to leave the ink cartridges inside said printer(HP deskjet 970cse Pro Series) causing them, during the move, to empty their contents all over the inside of the printer. I recently took the entire printer apart and cleaned most of the parts that were necessary for actually printing(printer head, the paper path, most of the wheels, etc.) and re-assembled it. of course I am manish enough not to try and follow any sort of instructions, and did everything without making careful documentation of everything. Last week I was finally able to plug it in and try to see if It works, and it doesnt want to reconigize that theres paper there! tomorrow I will take some pictures of the carcass and post them to help show if anything is missing, but would anyone have any rough idea what I could be missing?
