 Paper Will Not Feed or Job Stops Printing From Tray 2 When Printing Large Jobs

When attempting to print large print jobs from input tray 2, the print jobs stop printing or paper will not feed from tray 2; however, the tray does have paper loaded in the tray.

Remove the paper tray from the printer and inspect the paper level indicator. Verify the paper level indicator has not popped out from under the paper lift plate.

If so, grasp both ends of the tray and lightly twist the tray back and forth until the paper level indicator falls back into place.
