The paper sensors are sensing things they should not, or one or more sensors are defect. Or the logic board is not getting correct signals, or the logic board is defect, Just to mention a few possibilities for this message.
Not knowing what printer you have, be aware, most printers are cheaper then the ink they are coming with, so most of the time it is better to buy a new one than to repair.
But first check is nothing fell into the printer. Like a paperclip or a little shred of paper on a place it should not be.
After what I already found in "defective" printers, I will not be wondered for whatever you find. Lots of "defective" printers were cured, after I remover the obstruction.

Printmaster half-fold printing on epson printer

Before printing you need to select the size and orientation and it's a good idea to look at the preview before printing. That saves a lot of paper.

My printer seems to be stuck in copy mode, how do I switch it to printing?

What the problem sounds like is that the machine and print driver are set to diifferent paper types.
One says plain paper and the other bond paper.
Or something like that, the machine says bond and the printer plain paper.
Chech the size setting and paper orinentation.
Most of the time the paper type is wrong. Also check paper color etc etc. Something between the machine and driver is mismtached

We have a Canon Imagerunner 2020i and all of a sudden our copies are coming out offset and the screen says wrong size paper. We are using 8.5x11 paper for 8.5x11 copies.

Check the dial or slider on the side of the cassette tray for size indicator. This will cause jamming and the improper size message. Make sure the indicator matches the size of paper in the tray.

Load mpf paper

Your printer is set to default to the Main Paper Feeder, which is probably set for letter size paper. You must tell it to feed cards. On your Windows Desktop, left click mouse on START. left click on CONTROL PANEL, and left click on the PRINTERS icon. On the PRINTERS screen, RIGHT CLICK on your Dell printer icon. On the drop down menu, left click on PRINTING PREFERENCES. On the PRINTING PREFERENCES window, left click on the PAPER/QUALITY tab. Under TRAY SELECTION, choose the PAPER SOURCE where you want your business cards to feed from. Left click on APPLY button. Next, left click on the ADVANCED button. On the ADVANCED OPTIONS window, use the drop-down box next to PAPER SIZE to choose the paper size you want to feed. Press OK button. The PRINTING PREFERENCES window will now reappear. Left click APPLY, then OK buttons. After you have printed your cards, be sure to restore the printer defaults back to their original state, or the printer may jam because it must be programmed for the paper size being used. If you reload letter paper without resetting the paper size, the printer will think there is still card sized paper in the tray, and it will issue a jam or error code until the paper size is set properly.

Cannot print from Tray 1 in Gestetner 6002

First make sure that the machine is reading/ seeing the paper size of the paper that is in the tray ( select tray 1 from the touch screen and see what the paper size reads). If the machine sees a different size then that in the tray, use the 'user tools' and change the paper for that tray. Also, go into your printer settings on/in your computer and make sure that the proper paper size is selected ( the size that is in the tray you want to print from). If the orientation of the paper size is different from the tray -- will not print and give you the error.

Constant messages "Check Paper Size"

Try this first..... Some faxes can be configured for different paper sizes for timing of the preinting process. This would be either tabs on the back of the paper drawer of a soft setting found in the owners manual.
