Solutions

Quick Diagnosis

If the error appears immediately after printing, the driver is asking for a different size than what the printer has configured by default. Open the front panel and observe what size the device indicates to see if it matches the loaded paper.

Step-by-step Solution

  1. Remove the main tray and verify that the side guides hold the paper firmly.
  2. Reinsert the tray and, on the panel, navigate to 'Settings' -> 'Paper Setup'.
  3. Select the exact paper size (e.g., Letter or A4) that you have loaded.
  4. If you send prints with various formats, set the paper size to 'Universal' so the machine adjusts dynamically.

Prevention and Maintenance

Do not mix papers of different sizes in the same tray. If you use multiple formats, designate specific trays for each one and keep them correctly configured in the driver.

When to Call a Technician

If the size configured on the panel is correct but error 34 persists, the paper size sensor (actuator) inside the tray could be stuck or broken.

Frequently asked questions

Error 34 appears when the printer detects a discrepancy between the document size requested on the PC and the size configured in the physical tray.

It is not serious; it is a configuration error. The device stops to avoid printing on paper that doesn't match the dimensions.

No consumable needed; just ensure the paper used is the standard recommended size (A4/Letter).

Set the size to 'Universal' in the menu if you use variable paper sizes, so the machine adapts to the sent document.
