How can I fix paper feed problems for hp 2140 fax

Usually the culprit is the feed rollers get slick and the paper will not grab. Check the rollers.

it can.there is,inside paper feed section, some rubbers(one or two) try to clean them with alcohol and cloth,gently!

Is the POWER cable WELL CONNECTED to th Machine and to the outlet? Also could be formatter board.

Sir/Mam
The problem mite be dirty rollers that feed the paper, try cleaning with alcohol or worn out replace. Problem is the paper roller is miss feeding not taking up the paper instead of hitting something in the machine paper jam.

Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/normanj_7893313f0751935f

I've been told labels have to be manually fed on that printer.

try copying blank pages. If it feeds the paper, then try faxing again. If it does not feed the paper, then open the feeder and clean the rollers and the separator pad. You can use a coffee filter moisten with distilled or bottled water to clean them.

Try copying blank pages again to check if it feeds the paper.

Goodluck!

it will give you a break if the tires are not worn out. Look and feel if they are smooth, if they are smooth and shiny then replace otherwise clean with alcohol.

good luck
