@Osti89, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding an error message!
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.
I see you’re running into the Tray Lifting Failure (AlertID: 207) issue on your printer. No worries—I’m here to help you troubleshoot this!
Let’s try these steps:
Power Cycle the Printer
- Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source.
- Wait for about 2–3 minutes to reset the internal components.
- Plug it back in and turn it on to see if the error persists.
Check for Paper Jams or Obstructions
- Gently remove the paper tray and inspect it for any jammed paper or debris.
- If you see any stuck paper, carefully remove it without tearing.
Verify Paper Alignment & Load Capacity
- Make sure the paper is properly aligned with the tray guides.
- Avoid overloading—stick to the recommended paper limit for your printer model.
Reinsert the Tray
- Place the tray back firmly into the printer and ensure it sits properly.
Firmware Check
- If the issue persists, check if your printer’s firmware is up to date.
- You can find updates on the HP Support website under your printer model.
A couple of quick questions to help narrow this down:
- When did this error first appear? (After a paper refill, firmware update, or suddenly?)
- Do you hear any unusual sounds when the tray tries to lift? (Clicking, grinding, or no movement at all?)
- Have you tried a different type of paper? (Some printers are sensitive to thick or curled paper.)
- Also, let me know your printer model so that I can give you more specific troubleshooting steps!
Let me know what happens after these steps, and we’ll figure this out together! 😊
Take care, and have an amazing day!
