Paper exiting has edges that crease often.

[JackP1]

I have a brand new OfficeJet Pro 9025, it is very nice, but oftentimes papers that are exiting the printer with the edges folded over by about 1/2 inch. This does not happen on every document, but it is very bothersome.

Anybody with help on this?

Much appreciated.

Hi @JackP1,

Try the below suggestions -

Check the paper, and then reload it

Check the paper stack for defects such as wrinkled, torn, or bent pieces that might cause a pick-up issue.

1. Remove any paper from the paper tray.

2. Remove any severely bent, wrinkled, or torn paper found in the stack.

3. Check for obstructions inside the paper tray. Make sure nothing blocks the paper from engaging with the rollers.

4. Make sure the paper stack is even on all sides.

5. Load the stack of paper into the paper tray.

   

6. Close or push in the paper tray.

7. Select the correct paper size on the printer control panel or in the printer software.
