Paper not feeding into printer

Ok try this press the feed paper button so it will automatically take out paper that was jammed..But if this won't work, try this but turn off first your printer and PC..Lift the upper cover of your printer and look if there's a paper stuck in there...If there's a paper that's stuck remove the paper manually by pulling it little by little and prevent the paper to be torn so that no trace of paper will be left in the printer...after removing the paper..turn on again your pc and printer..Hope it will work

it is needing a hard reset sir.
nothing big

There are a couple of possibilities. First is a little piece of paper could be stuck somewhere along the paper path and is causing one of the feed rollers to not grab the paper evenly, which will make the page twist on most of the models in this series, if you pull the paper out and take a flashlight and look up the feed path you will usually see anything in the feed path near/on the rollers at the top.
Another possibility is one of the feed rollers is old and worn out (If machine gets heavy use) and it will cause same issue.
Also light paper stock can sometimes be too thin for the rollers to grab properly and cause it to twist and slide around. This is usually more of an issue with gravity/drop feed printers but can also occur on front feed style too. Usually 20lb stock is good, but if thats doing it, you can try going to a 24lb.

If the paper feeder stuck, do the following:

1. Gently pull any jammed paper out from the output tray or sheet feeder.
2. If paper is stuck inside, open the printer cover and remove the jammed paper, including any torn pieces. Then close the printer cover.
3. If paper remains near the sheet feeder, press the paper feed roller lever inside the paper feeder to release the jammed paper, then carefully pull it out.
4. Load the paper correctly.
5. Press the stop button to resume printing.
   

If the printer continues to jam or misfeed paper, and you are certain that there are no foreign objects lodged down inside the paper feed area, your printer may require service. Please call Epson technical support for further assistance.

Look closely at the "path" that the paper takes through the printer -- you probably have a small piece of paper stuck somewhere, that is causing the paper-feed to get "skewed".

Failing that, take the printer to a qualified technician.

Does it pull paper from the feed tray? If it only pulls it a little or not at all, try cleaning the rollers that pull the paper with a rag moistened with alcohol. Sometimes they get dust and dirt on them and won't grip the paper.

You need a separation pad for the paper tray. It would be advised to replace the feed rollers at the same time.
In the short term, you can pull out the paper tray, and on the very front (where the paper feeds out), you will see a black (or gray) rubber pad that is spring loaded. Scrub this pad with a little alcohol, on a cloth. You can even rough it up a little with a brillo pad. This should improve the feeding for the short term.

I had the same problem and this worked, although it is not the answer to your question:

Take a standard manila file folder and cut it to the basic shape of a standard piece of paper. When you lift the top cover on the under side you will see a diagram on how to pull the paper out in the case of a paper jam. Feed you file folder up from the bottom and you will ~ with a little work, more than likely be able to clear the jam.

Try this :

1. Turn the printer off and open the access cover.
2. Look for any obstructions in the paper path and remove them if necessary. (It is possible to move the carrier assembly with the power off.)
3. Turn the printer on, load some paper, and press the Form Feed button. (On the X83, press the Select button.)
4. Watch the paper as it feeds through and try to determine where the jam is occurring.
5. Check to see if all the rollers are turning.

If all the rollers are turning, there may be something in the feed path that you can't see. Go to step 6.
If not, there is probably a feed motor or a gear problem and the printer may require service.
6. If the paper is jamming under the carrier assembly, you may be able to fix it using the manual feed slot.
7. Turn the printer off.
8. Take a #10 envelope and feed it through the left side of the manual feed slot until it comes right through the printer to the back of the exit rollers.
9. Move it up and down first, and then slowly move it over to the right side. If something is stuck under the black guide plate, this may work it loose.

Normal 0 I suggest you get a sheet of Card Stock (Heavy paper) and place it in the feed way. Then press the print button applying a slight amount of pressure on the Card Stock so it will feed through the printer. The reason for this is in some cases I have been able to clear the paper track of debris that was deposited there over time.
Worth a try, as I have fixed a number of printers this way, saving costly repairs.
Hope this helps. Bud
