Whenever I print labels on my LaserJet Pro M203, the red attention light flashes and I have to hit the print button manually to print.  There is no error message on my computer.  I have tried changing the setting to "labels", rebooting the printer, etc.  My printer settings are the same as my co-worker and she doesn't have to do this every time like I do.  It only happens with labels.  Any thought on this?

This behaviour is triggered by either a paper size or paper type mismatch, meaning your computer is trying to print using media that does not match what is loaded in the printer. If the label sheet is letter size make sure that is what your program is calling for. Same with paper type.

Yes!!!! that worked!  Thank you!  The paper setting was not set the same after I dug around a little deeper into the preference area.
