Printer not taking paper

[viv97in]

 Hello all. This is my first question on this platform. I am using HP smart tank 500 on windows 11. My printer had a paper jam issue last month.  I cleaned all the bits of loose  paper subsequently. No pieces are visible now.

But now the printer is not accepting paper on a regular basis. It  picks up paper from the tray one in 10 attempts. Print quality is otherwise fine. How do I go about it?

Thanks in advance.

If you have not yet done so, add the steps to clean (automatic and manual)  and then reset the printer.
