Hi @MichaelBG,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with your HP Officejet 4630 and the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) parts. If you've removed the ADF feeder parts to clear a paper jam and are having trouble reinstalling them, here are some steps you can follow to try to resolve the issue.
- Check for Obstructions: Before attempting to reinstall the ADF parts, make sure there are no paper or debris left inside the ADF area. Even small pieces of paper can cause problems.
- Refer to the Manual: Consult your printer's user manual or documentation for specific instructions on how to properly reinstall the ADF feeder parts. HP usually provides detailed instructions for such tasks in their manuals.
- Power Cycle the Printer: Sometimes, power cycling the printer can help reset it. Turn off the printer, unplug it from the power source, wait for about 30 seconds, and then plug it back in and turn it on.
- Proper Alignment: Ensure that the ADF parts are aligned correctly and securely in their designated slots. You may need to gently wiggle or push them until they click into place.
- Test the ADF: Once you've reinstalled the ADF parts, try running a test scan or copy using the ADF to check if it's functioning properly.
- Update Firmware/Drivers: Make sure your printer has the latest firmware and drivers installed. Sometimes, updating these can resolve compatibility issues and improve functionality.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
