Hi @K3ZKO,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

When your HP ENVY Photo 7855 All-In-One Printer indicates that it needs paper even though paper is loaded, you can try the following troubleshooting steps.

 

Check Paper Tray:

  • Ensure the paper is correctly loaded in the paper tray.
  • Verify that the paper is not wrinkled, folded, or damaged.
  • Make sure the paper width guides are snug against the edges of the paper.

Paper Size and Type Settings:

  • Make sure the paper size and type settings in the printer's settings menu match the paper loaded in the tray.

Clean the Paper Feed Rollers:

  • Turn off the printer and disconnect it from the power source.
  • Open the paper tray and locate the paper feed rollers.
  • Use a lint-free cloth lightly moistened with distilled water to clean the rollers.
  • Allow the rollers to dry completely before reconnecting the printer and turning it on.

Reset the Printer:

  • Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source.
  • Wait for at least 60 seconds.
  • Plug the printer back in and turn it on.

Check for Firmware Updates:

  • Ensure your printer’s firmware is up to date. You can check for updates through the HP Smart app or the printer’s settings menu.

Reconfigure the Printer:

  • Remove the paper from the tray and reload it.
  • Ensure the paper is loaded properly and the tray is not overfilled.
  • Reinsert the paper tray fully into the printer.

Check for Obstructions:

  • Open the printer and check for any obstructions or small pieces of paper that may be causing the issue.
  • Clear any jams or debris you find.

Align the Printer:

  • From the printer's control panel, navigate to the settings or maintenance menu and run an alignment.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
