Hi,

Open and close the input paper tray, then evaluate the shown prompt to change the paper type and size.

 

Be sure to set the paper size as US Letter and the type as Plain Paper.

I stopped a print job because it was too long and right after that I could not get iti to copy

HP Recommended

removing the paper tray did not work - unplugging did not help either

I opened and closed the input tray, and then discovered there was a paper jam which had not been signalled.  I removed the paper and tried again, but to no avail.  When I try to copy, it starts up with the usual sound, but then stops, and "now copying" remains on the screen, but nothing happens. I've tried removing power source and plugging back in, turning printer on and off.  Nothing has worked.  Your advice will be appreciated.
