Why is my printer not picking up paper from the tray?

< 1 min read

Make sure paper is correctly loaded in the tray, with the printing side facing up.
Check that the paper guide is resting against the edges of the paper.
Check for any visible blockages on print path.
Clean the pickup rollers with a damp lint free cloth and water.
Check the settings of the printer driver, it might be set to manual feed instead of auto feed.
Reset the printer or try a different tray.
