Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

WIndows 10 64 bit OS.  The HP software will NOT detect paper in the paper tray or in the scan tray.  When printing I see OUT OF PAPER errors (tray is full of paper) when scanning I see ADF does not contain any pages, while I have a document in the scan tray.  Please help.

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I appreciate your efforts to try and resolve the issue.  

  • Did you make any changes to your printer?
  • Did this happen after a recent window or software update?

If you have already performed the steps from the document Out of Paper Error and the issue persists, it could be a hardware failure.

And, also Download and run HP Print and Scan Doctor: Follow steps from the link: Click here
 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

Thank you very much for your response Echo_Lake!  No changes to the printer or to the computer and no these issues did not start after a Windows or other computer update.  However I was JUST able to scan a document successfully.  Once only and not since.  Yes I did follow all steps from that document and yes I did run and install the Print and Scan Doctor

Everything is not fine.  Printer is retired and will be recycled.  Second HP in a row with very short unproductive life.  Going with another manufacturer.

Thank you for posting back. 

 

Apologize for the inconvenience caused

If it is the printer, I suggest you upgrade the printer as it is out of warranty. You may visit HP Store to check the available printers.
