I was trying to get 2 copies of an item. After the first copy printed, the printer stopped and the(?) copy light started blinking. When I pressed that light my second copy came out. I never had this problem before. I recently updated to windows 11.

Check and make sure that the paper size and type setting on your computer match the paper size and type settings on the printer itself and that both of these match the actual paper loaded into the printer. This behavior is common when there is a paper mismatch and the printer is waiting for you to click ok to accept the paper being used because it does not match.

Thank you. You were correct. Even though I had not consciously changed the paper size, it was changed. I checked it and corrected the paper size.
