HP Photosmart 7525

I am having issue where I have paper in the tray, but it does not feed thru to print after a print order has been requested.  It is not jammed anywhere, everything else is fine, but paper will not roll up to be printed. I have done reboots to the printer by unplugging it  then plugging back in and by turning  it off and back on.  Very frustrating......

Welcome to HP support community.

Clean the paper feed rollers

1. Gather the following materials:

   • A clean, lint-free cloth, or any cloth that does not come apart or leave fibers

   • Distilled, filtered, or bottled water (tap water might damage the printer)

2. Disconnect the USB cable from the rear of the printer if your printer is connected with a USB cable.

3. Press the Power button () to turn off the printer.

4. Disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.

5. Remove the two-sided printing accessory (duplexer) from the rear of the printer. Push the right side of the duplexer to the left, and then pull out the duplexer to remove it. Set the duplexer aside.

6. 1. 

      Push the duplexer to the left

   2. Pull out the duplexer

7. Lightly dampen a clean, lint-free cloth with bottled or distilled water, and then squeeze any excess liquid from the cloth.

8. Press the cloth against the rollers, and then rotate the rollers upward with your fingers. Apply a moderate amount of pressure to remove any dust or dirt buildup.

9. Allow the rollers to dry for 10 or 15 minutes.

10. Check the rollers on the duplexer. Make sure that the rollers are not missing, that they turn easily, and that they are springy when you press them. If the rollers are damaged, replace the duplexer.

11. Reattach the duplexer to the rear of the printer. Insert the two pegs on the left side of the duplexer into the left side of the printer, and then gently push the duplexer into place. Make sure that the duplexer is firmly attached.
