Hello. I have a problem when I want to print, the out of paper icon keep blinking although there are many papers in tray. Help! Sometimes I have to hold the paper to fit in the tray then it will print. But almost of the times, it will not print and keep saying there are no papers

Welcome to the HP Support Community
I suggest you do a Hard Reset on the printer
Remove the paper out of the printer.
(1) Turn the printer on, if it is not already on.
(2) Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you continue.
(3) With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
(4) Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
(5) Wait at least 60 seconds.
(6) Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
NOTE: HP recommends connecting the printer power cord directly to the wall outlet.
(7) Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.
(8) Turn on the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.
The printer might go through a warm-up period. The printer lights might flash, and the carriage might move.
Wait until the warm-up period finishes and your printer is idle and silent before you proceed.
Load the printer with plain, white paper.

Raise the input tray.
