The sheets might be sticking together. Try bending the stack to separate each sheet. Do not fan
the stack.

If you are printing from tray 1, try feeding fewer sheets of media at a time.

If you are printing small sizes (such as index cards), make sure that the media is oriented correctly
in the tray.

Turn over the media stack in the tray. Also, try rotating the stack 180°.

Try rotating media to feed through the printer from a different orientation.

Check the media quality. Do not use damaged or irregular media.

Use only media that meets HP specifications. See

Paper specifications on page 160

.

Do not use media that has already been used in a printer or copier. Do not print on both sides of
envelopes, transparencies, vellum, or labels.

Do not use media with staples or media that has had the staple removed. Staples can damage the
printer and can void warranty.

Make sure that the power supplied to the printer is steady and meets printer specifications. See

Specifications on page 157
