I have printed from downloads for a couple years now. All of a sudden I'm getting an "Out Of Paper" display on my desktop moniter. I'm able to make copies. I'm not out of paper. Nothing has changed that I know of. I live alone. No grinches around. I've unplugged, taken the paper out, reloaded, plugged back in. Several times. Can anyone help in simple "layman's terms"?

Hello @girlofthehollow, Hope you are well!

 

Welcome to the HP Forum! This is a wonderful location to converse with the community, get assistance and find tips.

 

Going through your post, it looks like a driver issue on the printer.

 

Let’s first try to fix this issue using HP Print and Scan Doctor (PSDR). PSDR is an automated tool which can diagnose and resolve printing and scanning problems. Please go to http://hp.care/2bZ9w2q to download and run HP PSDR. Once you open the software please select ‘Fix printing’ to automatically diagnose and fix the issue.

 

If the above step does not fix the issue, I would suggest to uninstall and reinstall the printer drivers. Please let me know the operating system you are using so that I can provide you with specific steps.

 

Let me know how it goes. Good luck!

Cheers 🙂
