There are 2 primary paper sensors. One is the registration sensor where the paper feeds in, the second is associated with the fuser unit.
The first sensor is located under a cover under the transfer unit.
i) Open the door
ii) Lift out the transfer unit (Q3964A)
iii) Locate the black plastic cover plate with a small green flap in the centre. This assembly is directly under where the transfer unit was installed.
iv) There are 2 shiny screws that secure this cover plate. Carefully remove these screws.
v) Lift out the black cover plate by lifting the left section up first which allows the right section to come clear of gears.
vi) Check for paper obstructing the small movable lever under the cover plate.
vii) To reinstall the cover plate, insert the right hand side down first and line up with the mounting holes.
I can supply photos if required.

Smeared output can result when you refeed a printed page into the
printer to make a double-sided page. This happens because the
rubber
rollers that grip the paper to pull it into the printer can pick
up toner
from the first side’s printing and smear it. So before replacing
parts, this is an easy thing to check. Printing multiple pages consecutively
will make the pages print progressively cleaner or you can clean the rollers with rubbing alcohol.
Smeared toner
also happens because the nonstick coating on the
fusing roller is scratched or has baked-on debris. This can happen
if the printer is in a dirty environment especially. If you are
comfortable removing the fuser, you can try to
clean it
with a soft cloth and alcohol, but make sure you let it cool down
first!
Finally, if this does not resolve your issue then make sure the fuser is
heating; toner that is not heated properly will fall from the page and smear. If the thermostat is bad or the fuser not working properly, you will most likely need to
replace the entire fuser assembly. This will be pretty expensive to
repair so hopefully it's one of those other issues.
