Solutions

Diagnóstico rápido

If the printer displays 'No Paper' despite a full tray, check the pickup rollers for a shiny coating of paper dust. A clean roller should have a matte, grippy texture.

Solución paso a paso

  1. Tray Check: Pull out the tray, fan the paper, and ensure the side guides are flush against the stack.
  2. Roller Cleaning: Gently clean the visible rubber pickup rollers with a lint-free cloth.
  3. Sensor Inspection: Check the path for tiny pieces of torn paper blocking the sensor.
  4. Reboot: Cycle the printer power to clear the error status.

Prevención y mantenimiento

Only use recommended paper types. Store paper in a dry place, as humidity makes paper stick together. Clean rollers every 6 months to maintain optimal friction.

Cuándo llamar a un técnico

If the rollers are physically cracked, or if the feeding mechanism makes a persistent grinding sound without picking up paper, seek professional repair.
