Not with this model but on other models I have seen this issue when the metal lifting part of the tray gets hung up on something inside the tray cavity. If you can access from the back, you may be able to use something like a long screwdriver to press down that part while someone pulls the printer out.

 

If you find the information provided useful or solves your problems, help other users find the solution easier by giving kudos and marking my post as an accepted solution.

Thank you for the reply, will give it a go.

From your description it sounds like the separation pad at the front of the tray has been dislodged.
