Paper mismatch displays on the printer. I have to pick the paper size manually on the printer to print. How do I stop this error?

This is essentially a paper size mismatch which causes a paper jam. Technically you submitted a print job for a paper size that did not match the paper which was fed into the printer. Example, your document is legal size but the printer pulled a letter-size paper. As it passes through internal sensors along the paper feed path, the paper size doesn't match the document size (created on the PC) and so the printer stops with the paper in its path posting the error and causing you to have to remove the paper from the jam area. The resolution is either provide the correct size paper based on the document settings in the PC application (may need to be fed in the printer's manual paper tray) or change the document size within the PC application to match the size of the paper being fed into the printer. (Paper size can also be modified in the printer settings on the PC.)

i just bought a FUJI XEROX M250b and it keeps displaying paper size mismatch not allowing me to do any printing or use other application. ive read the manual over and over and i cant fix this problem. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

Paper mismatch errors occur because the product scans the width of the envelope before printing. If the paper size setting in the printer driver does not match the paper actually loaded in the product, the product reports a 'Paper Mismatch' error. The message saves paper and ink by preventing print jobs from accidentally printing on the wrong paper. For example, the print job might be for a 101.6 x 152.4 mm (4 x 6 inch) photo, but there is letter-size paper loaded in the product. The error message displays to make sure that ink is not wasted on the wrong paper type. try this out , disable the automatic paper type sensor.

1. Open the Print dialog box.
   1. In Word 2003, click File , and then click Print
   2. In Word 2007, click the Office button ( ), and then click Print .
2. Make sure that your product is in the Name drop-down list box, and then clickProperties .
3. Click the Features or Paper/Quality tab.
4. In the Paper type drop-down list, click Plain paper .
5. Click OK to close the Properties dialog box.
6. Click OK again to print the current print job.

I got around this problem by tricking the printer.
The paper sensor, on my printer model hp4500 seems to only sense the paper at the beggining of the print job.
What I did to trick the printer to print on odd size paper is slide the paper adjuster to 8.5 and put a regular white sheet in. Then put your odd size paper under it. When you print your document set the number of copies to 2 and print. The printer is going to sense that the paper is correct, and start the job.
Here is the tricky part... once the first 8.5x11 sheet is almost all the way through quickly slide the paper adjuster over to match the size of your odd width paper. The printer should pick up the odd paper and print the second copy. Fool you printa! You should be able to do batches of odd paper size under the first 8.5X11. I hope this helps.

Deny When the 8.5x11

i believe that if you update the firmware for the copier, you shoud see that the garbage printing should go away.

make sure that you specify the same paper size in the print dialogue window - i.e., in MSWord go file - print - properties - and make sure paper size in the dialogue box matches media type in printer tray

I had this problem on the 6300 and was able to fix it by doing the following:

After selecting print, select preferences.
Select the Features tab.
Under Resizing Options, select "Custom" from the drop down menu.
Put in the custom dimensions of the paper on which you are printing.
Save it under a new name (e.g., "Invitation")

When it is time to print,
Select "More" from the drop down tab under Resizing Options.
At the bottom of the list of those options, you will see your custom sized saved.
Select it, and happy printing.
