Photosmart C5180- paper won't feed correctly

Hi,
We had a paper jam and after I cleared it, the paper won't feed correctly. 
If I feed one piece at a time, it will do it.  Otherwise, it pulls the top paper
from only the right side (as you are looking in) and causes another jam.
If anyone has any suggestions, or can tell me where to have this fixed,
I would be greatly appreciative.

Hi , I can help you with your reset request. I moved your post from its original location, but can see you tried everything suggested by DocCottle here: Photosmart C310 paper won't feed. I will send you a PM (Private Message), but before I do, feel free to review the HP Privacy Statement. This Privacy Statement informs you of our privacy practices and of the choices you can make about the way information about you and your online activity is collected and how that information is used. This statement is readily available on our HP.com home page and at the bottom of every HP web page. There are an increasing number of posts in this forum and elsewhere in the internet with the steps to do a resets on different printers.  The reset itself will sometimes fix problems, so the reset is not the issue.  Some resets require you to enter button combinations to open special menus on your printer that you were never meant to access.  These special menus are used by the developers and support personnel for debugging issues, but they are not meant for untrained users and can have unintended results.  One wrong button push and you no could no longer have a printer, but instead a pricey paper weight.  To top it off, if you do happen to "brick" the printer this way, it is considered customer induced damage, and voids the warranty automatically. These resets are only meant to be given out and used as a last resort, and under direct instruction of a HP tech support representative. They should not be done lightly! Printer Resets: What You Should Know Please check the little envelope on the top right hand corner of the forums page to check your Forums inbox.

  • Hp 1210v all-in-one; paper won't feed through

    Printer turns on, paper won't feed through, screen comes up you need to load paper and there is paper. Already opened the back of printer and cleaned the rollers? Can i get in through the front of the printer????

    Hello @WSimsIV,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are running into some print quality issues on your HP Photosmart 6510, you are unable to print in black ink.
    I would like you to continue here: Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages, I understand you may have done some of these steps already but I need you to complete all steps in order to resolve the missing black issue you are experiencing.
    Please note: There are three printhead cleaning stages. Complete all three stages if necessary. If the printhead is badly clogged, it might require another cleaning cycle. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last (third) cleaning stage to start the first stage of the cleaning process over again.
    If you are still unable to print in black ink, I suspect the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. Please let me know which Country/Region you are in as well as the product Warranty status: HP Warranty Checker
    I hope to hear from you soon.

  • HP Photosmart C5180 Will no longer feed 8x11 Photo paper from main tray

    My C5180 all in one will no longer feed 8x11 photo paper from main tray.  Rollers slip and will not pull paper in. Any suggestions?

    Hi @583seve 
    I see youa re having some difficulty with your Photosmart C5180. The following document addresses both out of paper messages and issues with paper pick; 'Out of Paper' Error Message Displays and the Product Does Not Pick Up or Feed Paper.
    If the issue persists, you might consider trying the steps in a paper jam document. Although you may not be experiencing a paper jam, the steps in this document may be all that is left to try; 'Clear paper jam, then press OK' Error Message Displays on the Control Panel.
    I hope this helps, but if after all your efforts the issue remains, I suggest calling HP. They may be able to offer you a discount on a newer model as part of a trade in trade up option. If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.

  • Photosmart Premium C310a won't feed paper

     I went through all of the HP support steps, including the video with no luck - (time wait on/off & power cord on/off, correct amount/type of paper, ALL rollers cleaned, no paper jams, print settings correct, cartridges installed properly, hard reset, etc, etc. It sounds like a gear grinding when the roller pickup bar drops down to feed the paper.  Is there a factory reset for this printer?? Please help, Thank you

    Hi @Ebeniste1uk,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that your HP Photosmart Premium c310a will not detect your photo tray on Mac OS X 10.10. I am happy to look into this for you!
    I would recommend going through this guide, The Printer Does Not Pick Up Photo Paper from the Photo Tray, and to watch this video:

  • OfficeJet J3680 Paper won't feed

    HI, I just installed my Office Jet 3680 on Windows Vista.
    When I go to print the printer makes noise as if it's trying to catch the paper, but it cannot. An error message appears saying "out of paper" when there is plenty of paper in the feed tray. I have tried more/less paper, thicker paper, cleaning the roller.... Sometimes a message appears saying "the feature you are trying to use is on a disk not available. Insert the solution center disk and click ok." [I do not have this disk and do not know where to get it.]
    Help!
    Thanks.

  • Paper won't feed in C4780

    I have a C4780 that is about a month over a year old now. I've loaded a few sheets into the tray and attempt to print a document. The printer receives the document and begins the initial process of moving gears around. All of a sudden it makes two very short loud noises and then the screen on the printer displays a message saying something to the effect of "No paper loaded." I've read through the support documents that run you through cleaning the feed wheels. Didn't work. Any other ideas?

    Make sure you are using regular paper. Try stacking about 90 sheets in the tray and see if that helps. If not try about 5 sheets of a rougher heavy paper (sometimes dust builds up on the pick roller and running some rough sheets through it will clean the pick roller).

  • HP Photosmart Plus B209a - Won't print correctly straight from the web.

    When printing directly from a web page using a print icon on the web page my printer prints the entire web page, sometimes jumbled up instead of just printing the page it should. I can temporarily fix this by going to: File → Print Preview → Print Frames and changing the setting from “As laid out on screen” to “Only the selected frames”. Is there any permanent fix to this?
    My operating system is Windows XP Home Edition SP2 and IE 6.0.

    Thanks for that. I have just updated it to IE8 and it now works as advertised.

  • New P1006 won't feed paper

    My new P1006 laser printer won't feed the paper in....after a paper jam.  I have followed the procedure in the on-line manual.  Any ideas out there?

    You could try cleaning the rubber rollers at the back of the printer by removing the rear access door and then cleaning it, as the black marks may just be ink deposited on teh rollers while feeding the paper. This will also help increase the rollers' grip in the paper and prevent any misfeeds that in turn result in a paper jam. I would definitely try this first.

    The printer thinks I want to print photos when I just want to print papre. The Photo Printing light is on. Won't feed regular paper.

    You could use the iPrint App to accomplish this. The following thread has links to show how to install and use the iPrint App for Android, iPhone, and iPod products.

  • HP Photosmart C5180 won't scan to computer?

    I want to scan a picture to my computer so I can later email it to someone. I put the picture in the front right part of the scanner as directed, but when I clicked on Scan Menu, the only options were Scan and Reprint and Scan to Memory Card. There's no option to scan to the computer. I really need these pictures scanned tonight.

    Hi marisam,
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you cannot scan to your computer with your HP Photosmart c5180. I am happy to help! I have a few questions for you:
    What Operating System are you using? Windows or Mac? What version?
    Can you make copies with the printer?
    Is the power cable plugged into a surge protector or directly to the wall outlet?
    In the meantime, if you are using Windows, please try our HP Print and Scan Doctor, and let me know what happens.
    Hope to hear from you, and thank you for posting!

  • Envelopes do not feed correctly on my HP5610 All in One printer and return addresses get chopped off

    I'm running a Windows 8 64 bit laptop and the feeder seems to grab the paper properly but it cuts off part of the return address all the time. I can push it in maybe and inch or so when the feeder starts to grab the paper and this will correct it, but it will cause a jam if it's pushed in too far. It did this on my previous Windows 7 machine as well.

    Hello @gttechnic , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I can see from your post that you are running into envelope feed issues.  I'd like to help!
    I would recommend performing a power reset on the printer.  Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
    I'd also recommend the document below:
    'Paper Mismatch,' or 'Paper Size Mismatch' Error Message Displays When Printing
    Even though you aren't receiving this error, the steps should help.
    Please keep me posted, and remember, keep your stick on the ice!

  • Photosmart C5180 all in one not copying and or printing

    My Photosmart C5180 all in one-- will not print material from my computer. It will not copy either.
    I did a print test from my computer's solution software and a nice picture of 2 pears came out fine
    in living color. I did an extended self test diagnostic - 2 pages--and the headings (product information, etc)
    printed out fine in black and blue ink---but the info under each heading printed really really light - not readable.
    When I try to print from my computer I get a blank page. When I try to copy something it sounds like it
    is printing, but the paper is blank.  Thanks for the help.
