"Media Needed" error message when printing

[AF12345]

Every time I go to print, I get a "Media Needed" error message.  I use an HP Deskjet D1660.  I don't know what that means and I have been trying to get to the bottom of the problem.  I have tried everything from forgetting the printer, to a hard reset, to trying to clean the paper rollers.  Can anyone offer me some help and guidance with this issue?  My printer has never had any ideas before this one.

@AF12345, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

It seems like the printer is not able to detect and pick the papers in the printer to print.

Perform the steps mentioned in this document - An 'Out of Paper' error displays, printer does not pick paper
