Welcome to the HP Support Community
I suggest you do a Hard Reset on 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.
Make sure the photo tray is seated correctly
This error can occur if the printer trays are installed incorrectly. Make sure the printer is located on a flat surface, and then make sure the photo tray moves smoothly within the paper tray guides.
-
Make sure the printer is positioned on a flat surface.
-
Push in the output tray extender.
-
Pull out the input tray, but do not remove it.
-
Remove the output tray.
-
Make sure the photo tray is seated correctly, and that the photo tray guide tabs (grey) are sliding beneath the main tray guides (black) on both the left and right side of the input tray.
If they are not in the correct position, gently move the photo tray to align the tab gaps, and then gently press the tabs back into position.
The photo tray should move freely with no resistance.
-
Reinstall the output tray, and then make sure the edges line up with the input tray.
-
Try to print.

Try updating the printer firmware using this link: https://support.hp.com/in-en/product/hp-envy-5660-e-all-in-one-printer-series/6809225/document/c0291...
Restart the printer.
If the issue persists, this could be a hardware issue with the printer.
I would personally suggest you contact our HP Support for one on one interaction.
