When printing multi page prints from tray 2, i will get a paper jam light and printing stops after second or third page with that page half out and the next in the paper path. No jam has actually occurred. I have cleared and cleaned the path, sensors and verified the flags are positioned correctly and functioning properly. The fuser was exchanged for one that is working to no effect. all rollers are clean and functioning, including the soft squishy ones in the back. Any ideas on what to check next. Oh, when printing from tray 1, I can print all day without any problems.

HP LaserJet 4, 4m, 4 Plus and 4m Plus Series Printers - False Error Message 13 PAPER JAM ISSUE: After clearing all jammed paper from the HP LaserJet 4, 4m, 4 Plus, or 4m Plus series printer, the display still reads 13 Paper Jam . Even after cycling the power off and then back on, the error remains. SOLUTION: Open the rear door of the printer. There is a paper sensor near the upper right hand corner of the fusing assembly (just below the right edge of the long yellow warning sticker on the fuser) that can cause paper jam error messages even when there is no jammed paper in the printer. Toggle the thin black plastic lever up and down to make sure it is not stuck or sticky. The lever should be in the down position before closing the back of the printer. If the lever is stuck or missing, the printer will generate a false paper jam message. Hope it will help you !

Try this, make a print from the by-pass tray, does it go OK or jam??
If it jams then there is a problem with the paper feed from the tray.
If it jams then
1-check the drum and see if there is an image on it( you can put a mark on the edge to see if it's rotating, thus eliminating the drum unit)
2-same for the reg roller
3-check for labels ar foreign objects

It sounds like the registration switch actuator is being held down too long.
Also check registration clutch and make sure cassette tray is lifting all the way up and feed rollers are "snapped" in tight. Good luck.
Weird problem!

Hi,
I was able to fix my problem. On the left side of the fuser assembly there are two small plastic tabs or flags that move up & down. One is attached to the plastic rod/flap that you can see from the top of the fuser and moves when the paper comes out of the "chute". The other tab, which is below the first tab and moves when the paper has passed some point in the fuser, was broken off. I glued the tab back on and now the paper is ejected from the printer like it is suppose to.
I'm thinking that the broken tab was part of a page sensor flag that would tell the printer to stop rolling the fuser assembly when the paper was ejected. Without the flag, the sensor would disengage the fuser prematurely and stop ejecting the paper while the paper was still in the fuser.

2 possibilities
1 It is trying to make more than 1 copy and the second one is jamming as it's picking up the paper ( clean tires)
2 it's set to legal instead of letter.
