Hi. My printer informs me that my 4 x 6 photo paper tray is empty...it isn't. But when I put the paper in upside down its ok and will print, but of course on the wrong side.
I have tried putting in 1 sheet, several sheets. But only with the paper upside down will it accept that there is paper in the tray.
Its not HP paper but I have used other makes before. This is Tesco paper. One side is glossy the other dull.
Any one with any ideas?
