The printer will not take paper all the way into the unit.

The print job starts, the paper gets drawn part way in but not all the way, printing commences but not on the paper!

Hi @WIDGEY,

I'd like to help!

Let's try a power reset on the printer

Reset the product

• With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
• Wait at least 60 seconds.
• Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
• Reconnect the power cord to the printer.
• Turn the printer on. HP recommends plugging the printer directly into a wall outlet.

 try updating the printer's firmware - HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware 

Also, try the steps in the document 'Out of Paper' Message Displays and Printer Does Not Pick Up Paper

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
