Product: HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
My P1102w Laserjet printer will not feed the paper straight. It pulls it to the left and jams and tears in the top center then jams.

Shine a flash light and watch the paper pick up from the tray. When paper starts to pull left, open the cartridge door. Inspect paper path where leading edge of paper stopped. Usually, there is something blocking the paper path. Send pictures if possible. If paper makes it up into the fuser assembly, the heating element of the fuser make have failed. If you find pieces of film like material inside your printer, you will need a fuser.
