Unie,
If your Printer indicates the error, then what you do depends on your printer's model.
You can look up the troubleshooting tips for your printer:
Open HP Drivers & Downloads
Enter your Printer Model information
Select your Printer from the “Results” list
Open tab "Troubleshooting" > Select Solve a problem > Jam and Feed Problems >
Select An 'Out of Paper' Message Displays ...
The exact wording may vary. The point is to find the document that most closely matches your situation.

It is a nice way to say “Thank You” for the help.

Hp officejet pro 8500 a909a frequently shows out of paper when it is not.

hp officejet pro 8500 a909a frequently shows out of paper when it is not. I am .getting rub marks on the top sheet of paper from the rollers.

Your response to my question seems to reflect a rude attitude simply because I asked this question. In response to your response, I have no manual, and the first place I went for info was the HP website - and I got you.
There are three things that I need from you, and none of them is a sarcastic rude attitude. Please provide me with the following information:
     1. Information on how to clean the rollers.
    2. Your name/employee i.d.
     3.  How to contact your supervisor.
Thank you,

Printer has paper, but computer says it is out of paper and won't print from web

I am having trouble getting the computer to recognize that the printer has paper. The printer will print copies that I put in it, but when I want to print from the web, it won't let me do it; it just tells me that the printer is out of paper. I printed a number of pages from the web yesterday with no problem at all. I have an HP Deskjet F2430.
This question was solved.

I was trying to print off some material I had looked up on the web. When I saw what I was trying to print was going to be 40 pages, I did not want to continue printing it, and I did not know how to stop the printing, so I just pulled out my paper from the loader thing. I have since put paper back in the loader, but now my printer will not print anything, and says I am out of paper. I have tried and tried to fix this problem, and I really need to be able to print stuff, so I am pretty frustrated with this. I am a senior citizen and will admit that I am not all that astute with tech stuff. I would certainly appreciate some guidance with my problem. Thank you very much.

Why does my printer say it's out of paper when I try to print a photo saved in folders on my compute

Until recently my printer would print pictures saved up on my computer. All of a sudden my HP Photosmart C6380 All-in-One won't print. The photo tray goes in like it should, full of paper, but in a few seconds comes back out and the screen as well as the printer says that it is out of paper. What can I do to fix this problem.

They say my iCloud is full. My computer says 22 G out of 25G available. Have tried making contact but it's the most unhelpful help system imaginable.

They say my iCloud is full. My computer says 22 G out of 25G available. Have tried making contact but it's the most unhelpful help system imaginable. Is this the only way to contact the people who sell this stuff. Have tried phone. Doesn't work.

iCloud can be used in two ways.
The first is a central storage location for documents and data used by apps/applications, that enabled you to open that app/application on any device and see and work with your documents regardless of which device you are working on. A simple example would be to start a pages document on your Mac and then complete it on your iPad, without any copying, moving, uploading, searching through filing systems to make this happen.
The second use is for back ups of your mobile device, which can be used to restore those devices should the need rise for whatever reason.
The concept is all quite simple really, although it can become a little more difficult to understand where things might be going wrong if you find yourself in such a situation.

The app store won't let me get a game because it says i'm out of space when i checked and i have enough

the app store wont let me download an app it says i'm out of storage when I checked the game takes 1.6 and i have 2.4

You need to free up more storage space. To download and install an app it take between two and three times the file download size. You need between 3.2 and 4.8 free.

Does logging out of Firefox when you're not using it save energy?

Have been reading about how much energy servers consume. If I log out of Firefox when I'm not using it, does that decrease the amount of energy servers are using?

If you've never replaced the hard drive, it could be slowing down - 3 to 5 years is the typical lifespan for a notebook hard drive.
Do you know how much RAM is in the computer?
If the computer mostly works OK, you may just need to invest in it a little - replacing the hard drive & upgrading the RAM will breathe new life into it, most likely!
You do not need to shut it down each time you're done using it - in fact, I leave my MacBook asleep 90% of the time and reboot it every couple of weeks or when it seems to be getting a bit sluggish. I've been doing that for the last 7 years and she's still chugging along.

Why does my printer say out of paper when there is a full stack?

When I try to print from my printer it will say "Out of Paper" even though there is a full stack of paper in the printer. I tried lowering the stack to see if that would work and it didnt. How do I fix this problem?

Please read this post then provide some details. What printer model? (There are a number of Photosmart Premium models).
The troubleshooting steps here may help.

Why does my printer keep saying out of paper? it's not!

My printer tries to pick up paper for a long time then tels me its out of paper...It's not. Is my machine broken? I just bought it like 2 months ago. What do I do or where do I take it to get it fixed?

Reset the product
With the product turned on , disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button
try printing again
if this doesn't work...
If you just purchased 2 months ago you are STILL in warranty an will get free support if you call
1800.474.6836
If they are unable to resolve over the phone you may be eligible for a free replacment.... but they will have to go thru trouble shooting first. expect to spend close to 1 hour on the phone.
If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

My 8600 printer (fairly new) will not print: Displays "out of paper". It is NOT out of paper.

I have followed all instructions on the 8600 printer on internet. What do I do to get it printing again.
Just displays "out of paper." I have removed the paper, fanned it, jogged it, etc., but no go.

Try the troubleshootings steps in this document and this document.

HP 5510v all-in-one using Windows XP 2000 keeps showing out of paper msg. but is not.

Have in the past pulled Jammed paper out through the front (with extreme difficulty I might add) but finally read online to open door in back to relieve jam. Anyhow, could I have messed up some sensor or something by doing that? Have tried unplugging and etc., but nothing clears problem. Machine will sometimes print one sheet, but then hear a meshing of roller gears or something, then back to out of paper msg. Printer is maybe 5 yrs. old. Really liked up to now. Thanks in advance.
