Solving general printing problems Printer selects media from the wrong tray. Cause Solution The tray selection in the software program might be incorrect.

For Macintosh computers, use the HP Printer Utility to change the priority of the tray. The configured size does not match the size of the media that is loaded in the tray. Through the control panel, change the configured size to match the size of the media that is loaded in the tray. Also, change the media-size window, located on front upper right of the tray, to match the media-size settings. Tray 2: Make sure that the media-size dial matches the media loaded in the tray. Printer does not pull paper from tray. Cause The tray is empty. The paper guides are set incorrectly. Solution Load paper in the tray. To set the guides correctly, see Configuring trays on page 53. For tray 2, make sure that the leading edge of the paper stack is even. An uneven edge can prevent the lift plate from rising. Paper curls when it exits the printer. Cause The paper curls when it exits to the top output bin. Solution Open the rear output bin to allow the paper to exit in a straight path through the printer.
