paper.
If there is paper in the paper tray, make sure it is straight. If the paper is curled,
straighten it before printing. Sometimes it is helpful to remove the paper. Turn the
stack over and put it back in the paper tray. If the paper continues to curl, replace
the paper.
Reduce the amount of paper in the paper tray, and then try again.
Make sure that manual feed mode is not chosen in the printer driver.
Clean the paper pick-up roller. See Cleaning the paper pick-up roller

the page setup or document setup menu of your software. (See your application
manual.)
