Printer prints on multiple sheets at once

If the printer prints on several sheets at once, check the following:

Paper weight

The printer might print on multiple sheets of paper at once if the paper is under the recommended paper weight. Use paper that is within the recommended specifications. For paper weight specifications, see the reference guide that came with the printer.

Paper might be loaded improperly

The printer might print on multiple sheets of paper at once if the paper is loaded too far toward the back of the printer. Reload the paper into the paper tray, pushing the paper until you feel resistance.

The printer might also print on multiple sheets at once if different paper types are loaded in the In tray. For example, photo paper might be put on top of plain paper. Empty the In tray and load only the paper type that is appropriate for the document that you are printing.

Printer does not feed paper

Try one or more of the following solutions:

●Reduce the number of sheets in the paper tray.

●Remove the paper from the tray, and then reload it.

●Use a different type of paper.

Printer ejects paper

If the printer ejects the paper, try one of the following solutions:

●Move the printer away from direct sunlight. The printer might have been placed in direct sunlight, which can affect the Automatic Paper-Type Sensor.

●Select a paper type other than Automatic.

●If you are performing a color calibration, install both the tri-color and the photo print cartridges.
