Paper will not feed in straight. I've tried cleaning the rollers. No debris inside printer. What else can I try?
Hello, Vicki -
I found a HP discussion board where someone posted the same question, but for a different model HP printer. See all the replies here:

Best wishes.

hi,
the issue that you have might need to change some settings from the printing properties. WHen you hit on PRINT, a box will open, right? look on the top right of that box, you will see "PROPERTIES" or "Preferences" just click on it, then another box will open. Click on Printing Shortcuts tab, try to review the settings. And if you want to print using the main tray, it should set it to Automatic select or Main tray. And make sure that it sets to General Printing. But if youre going to print a photo, you will have options there to choose what type of paper when you click on that, the settings on the paper size, paper source, etc. will change also. For paper source, make sure that it sets to Photo Tray.
If you will be able to open printing preferences, all options are there, you just need to read and choose which settings you want to use.
Thank you so much.

Hi ihimc1, over time dust and paper fibres can cause the rollers to stick, which can result in the paper not feeding please take these steps below to clean the rollers.
Turn off the all-in-one.Unplug the power cord from the back.Remove the rear access door. Clean the rollers one at a time using
a clean cloth that is slightly dampened with water. Rotate the roller
to clean the entire surface.
Verify that the three paper feed rollers on the rear access door are clean and rotate freely.
Reinstall the rear access door and then plug the power cord back in.Turn the all-in-one back on.

Solution
Step one: Reset the product
Step two: Check the condition of the paper and reload it
Step three: Adjust the paper settings in the print driver
The paper settings in the print driver must match the paper settings for at least one of the installed paper trays.
NOTE:
Use only plain, white, unused paper in the product until the issue is resolved.
NOTE:
Do not load too much paper in the product.
NOTE:
If
the issue is resolved and it is necessary to print on another type of
paper, load the new paper type into the product and then repeat steps 2
through 7 for the new paper.These changes do not change the default
print settings. The print settings return to the default the next time
the program is opened.
Step four: Clean the rollers
Step five: Service the product

Check the gear on the left side of your printer where the disk encoder strip is attach,the gear is not holding the metal shaft your need to replace that gear. The problem is in the inner hole where the shafting is attached.
