Paper feeder grabs several pieces of paper at once

The printer when it was cleaned for paper jam might have damaged paper rollers which picks the paper as the gap is increased due to paper pull.You can replace rollers then problem will be solved .

Leading cause of paper jams is debris/foreign objects that accidentally fell into the paper feed area. Please follow steps below to fix the problem:

1. Remove the sheets of paper from the feeder.

2. Grab a flashlight and look inside the feeder for any debris or foreign objects.

3. If you're willing and physically able, you may also turn the printer over. Any debris should just freely roll out from the feeder.

4. If feeder is clear, place the printer back on the table, open the printer cover and remove the cartridges.

5. Check the cartridge area for any obstructions/debris in the cartridge carrier's path or the paper path.

6. If cartridge area is clear, close the cover.

7. Re-brick your printer. Pull out the power supply, black box where the power cord is plugged in at the back of the printer, and put it back after 30 seconds.

8. When the printer turns on, reinsert the cartridges and load some paper. Try to print a document again to verify that the problem is fixed.

Epson 1520 printer - Paper feed issues

set the paper tray size to the size of the paper...if this is ok...clean the pick upo roller with damp cloth and soap water...if this doesnt help ...change the pick up roller..

keep me posted

1. Prepare your doc/file for printing.
2. Insert card stock with narrow side of stock in slot in back of printer until it hits rollers and stops. Don't force in any card stock thicker than max. rated.
3. Change printer setup to feed from rear.
4. Print.

Depending on what software you print from, you may need to change this each time you print if you intend to keep printing from that "tray."

I'm trying to print/fax several pages but the feeder doesn't "grab" the paper--basically nothing happens...BTW, mine is the HP Officejet Pro L7780 All-In-One.

please check gear train and confirm no broken one-check of selonid not working in a right way and no foreign object droped inside(like pins).-check of smoth actuation of paper present detector.(in place and movement when you put papers

Its most likely to be the pickup roller and separation pad which will need replacing. as a short term fix try cleaning them with some isopropyl alcohol
