I have a P1005 laser jet hp printer. I have a "out of paper" notice when I try to print even though I have loaded the paper tray. How do I fix this?

The light means that the printer is out of media, or the media did not feed properly

What you can do

-Load media into tray and press Continue button to resume printing.

-Check that the media is loaded correctly in tray

-Press Cancel button to cancel the print job.

when i try to print by hp laser jet p1005 the red led is flashing then error appear (firmware download error) the printer was unable to communicate with your computer
what can i do to solve this problem

HP LASERJET P1005
PROBLEM: it was out of paper, new paper was installed, but printer wouldn't feed or print

SOLUTION: Lift the top cover of the LaserJet (where the printed paper would come out) and close it again. This resets the printer. Now the printer should feed and print again.

Go to the control panel and open tyour printer folder.

Right-click default printer and select properties.

sleect the paper tab and configure the printer to print on a size A5 paper.

Then click apply.

Hi,

• Inspect the paper trays to make sure they are not overloaded. To determine if this is the problem, do a test print with only one piece of paper loaded in the paper tray. (If this turns out to be the problem, keep the paper tray half-full in the future.
• Check that the type of paper being used falls within the printer manufacturer's recommendations. For example, paper designed for ink-jet printers doesn't necessarily work well in laser printers. High-quality, bonded paper will cause paper jams in some printers; look for bonded paper that is "laser and ink-jet compatible."
• If someone has recently printed labels on this printer, check to see if a label has come unglued from a sheet and become stuck inside the printer.
• Check the gears and rollers for stuck shreds of torn paper from previous jams. Turn off the printer before you attempt to remove the bits of paper.
• If you have a laser printer, inspect the printer's paper rollers. They should be smooth but not shiny. Rollers that are cracked or glazed are a frequent cause of paper jams and should be replaced by a technician.
• If you have a laser printer, try cleaning the printer's paper rollers with a lint-free cloth and isopropyl alcohol (available at electronics shops or drugstores).
• Try changing the toner or ink cartridge.
• If you hear a clinking sound during printing, your printer probably has a broken gear and needs to be serviced by a technician.

Please rate my response!!

the paper detect sensor is probably broken - pull out the tray, you may find a small black piece of plastic - you will probably need to replace this sensor

Although you really haven't given me enough information, I will posit and response for you.

A "Load Paper Error can be caused by the application telling you to change the "TYPE or SIZE" of paper that is in your paper tray.

For example, The application thinks you want the page printed on "Letterhead" paper, but it know that you have plain bond paper installed.

So you are sent a change paper type message.

The fix is to hit go and skip around that error.

The actual fix is to make sure that your printer driver, application and the printer are all set to the same size paper and type paper.

Don

check the paper size in the printer driver settings.
this should also be set to letter.

try going into the advanced settings and make sure it's on the right settings there .

Go to the paper menu set tray 1, Letter size and "any" for paper type.

Set tray 2 Letter and paper type "Plain"
