HP LaserJet Pro M402dn

When printing on the HP m402DN, the first page is usually illegible and very enlarged.
Even a test page. When I ran two printouts one after another, the first was illegible and the second was correct.

When printing 3 pages from a PDF, the first one is wrong and the other two are correct.

It's the same on everyone.

Maybe someone had a similar problem and solved it.

 

The printer has two trays. Is it possible to somehow disable/block tray 1?

Now the printer continues to pull paper from that tray. If there is no paper in tray 1, an error occurs and no printing occurs. Despite indicating the paper source in tray 2 in the driver, it still feeds from 1.
