Paper feed issues in the automatic document feeder might result from dusty, torn, wrinkled, wet, or folded paper in the ADF tray. The quality of the paper can also make a difference. Use only good quality paper that meets product specifications. Follow these steps to check the condition of the paper.

Examine the condition of the paper, and then replace any ripped, dusty, curled, wrinkled, or bent paper.

Make sure that the paper is a supported paper type for the product.

Make sure that all the paper in the stack is the same size and type. Never load mixed types of paper in the document feeder tray. The product can only process one type of paper at a time.
-
Tap the edges of a stack of 10 to 25 sheets of paper on a flat surface to make sure that the edges are even.
-
Load the stack of paper print side up in the document feeder tray.
note:
Do not load more than 25 pages in the document feeder tray. Larger stacks of paper can lead to pick problems.
