For:  Unknown Printer

Paper that does not feed is generally caused by one or more of:

• Dirt in the printer path  (Printer surfaces and / or rollers should be cleaned)
• Tray adjustment or incorrect tray selection for the paper size / type, or a sensor that causes the printer to mis-pick the paper
• Incorrect or incomplete Printer Preferences settings for the paper size, type, and weight
• Unsupported paper size, type, or weight  -- for example, the paper might be too heavy for the printer

One example for one printer model series
