Load tray 1 plain a4 ошибка hp

@JeffDIsr,

Welcome to the HP Forums :slightly_smiling_face: I would like to take a moment and thank you for using this forum, it is a great place to find answers. For you to have the best experience on the HP forum, you could also visit our HP Forums Guide for First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More. I understand you are having issues related to printer. No worries, I’ll be glad to help you.

To provide you with an accurate solution, I’ll need a few more details:

Have you recently made any changes on the printer before the issue started?

Have you tried to check the print settings?

Have you tried to update the printer firmware?

Let’s start off by updating the printer firmware. If your printer connected wirelessly, make sure to temporary connect the device with USB and then follow the link to install the latest firmware update on your printer from our HP support website. Click here to download the firmware update for your printer. Once done, restart the printer.

For more details on how to update, please use this link: HP LaserJet — Update the firmware

If the issue persists, I would suggest here is to do a hard reset on the printer and make sure that the printer is connected directly to the wall outlet and not to the surge protector.

With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer and also unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

Remove USB cable, if present.

Wait for 2-3 minutes, press and hold the power button on your printer for about 30 seconds to remove any additional charge.

Now plug back the power cable straight to a wall outlet without any surge protector or an extension cord and then plug back the power cord to the printer.

Turn on the printer and wait till warm-up period finishes and the printer is idle.

Change the paper size and type from the program you are printing from.

In the program you are trying to print from, click File, and then click Print.

The Print window opens.
Open the Properties dialog box.

Depending on the software program, the button might be Properties, Options, Printer Setup, Printer, or Preferences.
Click the Paper Quality tab, and then select the paper type from the Media drop-down menu.
Click Advanced, select a paper size from the drop-down menu, and then click OK.
Click OK to apply the settings, and then click Print.

Print a cleaning page to clean the paper feed and pick rollers

Search Windows for your printer model, and then click the printer name in the list of results.

HP Printer Assistant opens.
Click Print, and then click HP Device Toolbox.
Click the System tab, and then select the Service page.
In the Cleaning Mode area, click Start to begin the cleaning process.

We get numerous calls on this HP laser printer issue, and if you know how to decipher and trouble-shoot the differences between these two error messages, it’s usually fairly simple. Usually, this is a setting miscommunication, rather than a laser printer hardware failure.

Decoding HP Laser Printer Manual Load Paper and Tray 1 Load Paper Messages

What is the difference and what do you do when your printer tells you to either manually load tray 1 or load tray 1 with a specific size and type of paper?

With manually load tray 1 the printer is asking you to single-sheet feed each page, while the load tray 1 with a specific size and type message occurs because the machine does not see that specific paper in any of the other trays.

Manually load paper tray 1 can be caused by two things; either a setting in the print driver on the computer prompting the message, or because the printer menu’s manual feed option is turned on.

Print a configuration page

One way to distinguish them is to run a configuration page from the panel of the laser printer. If the display says manually load tray, then it is turned on in the menus of the printer.

For most HP printers, simply go into the Configure Device Menu, choose the Printing Menu, then scroll through and find where it says Manual Feed and select Off. If the printer asks you to load tray 1 with a specific size and type, it is not finding what it’s seeking in any other trays.

This could be a setting discrepancy between the driver and print job settings and the way the printer is set up. Run a configuration page from the machine. Does it ask to load tray 1 or does it print from your cassette trays?

If it is asking for tray 1 put paper into tray 1 to print out the configuration page. On the configuration page, look under paper trays and option to find out how it recognizes the trays’ set up. You will also have to look at this if this only happens when sending print jobs to compare your driver settings with that of the machine.

If the configuration page is not saying what you think you should have in the tray, then check the tray and make sure your paper guides are in the correct positions. Depending on the model of machine it could have a bad paper size sensing board.

For example: If the printer is telling you to load tray 1 plain letter and this only happens when sending a print job with internal tests working fine with no issues, then check the print drivers on the computer and see how you have the trays set up.

Another example: The machine says load tray 1 plain letter and it does this even when it is trying to print a configuration page.

Open up the menus and go into the Paper Handling menu. Check the type of paper the tray is set up to handle, and make sure it is plain. The problem could be caused by something as simple as someone changing it to bond by accident.

If that is OK and it is set to plain, then check the guides in the tray, and check on the configuration page to make sure it sees it as letter. If it shows that it sees the setting as legal and the tray is set correct, then you have a bad size sensing board for the tray.

What do you do if it is seeing it as plain and letter and it is still asking for plain letter in tray 1 even running a configuration page? Try a cold reset, sometimes this is needed to kick start the machine. This is usually not the case, but every now and then you will get a stubborn printer.

hi all, an offsite user has a printer that is a HP Laserjet 5100.

They have been unable to print to anything other than the bypass tray.

They want tray 2 [letter] to be default.

i tried manually setting tray 2 as default , and it still asks ‘tray 1 load plain paper’

I googled this and came up with the following:

If the HP LaserJet 4000, 4050, 4100, 5000 or 5100 series printer displays the message «Tray 1 Load Plain Letter » or if the paper is being pulled from an unexpected paper tray, try the following steps:

Follow these steps to check that the paper guides in the trays are correctly configured.

1. Remove the tray in question from the printer, take out all of the paper, and verify that the rear paper guide and the side paper guides are aligned with the «Letter » guide slot and not the «A4» guide slot.

2. On some paper trays, there is a dial on the right of the tray, along the outside area, where the paper is loaded toward the front. Follow these steps if the tray has the dial:

a. Pull the tray out of the printer.

b. Look at the blue paper-size-adjustment-dial and verify that the correct paper size is selected.

3. Other trays have an adjustment in the left, upper area in front of where the paper is loaded. As soon as the tray is being removed, look down on top of it toward the front left side. For trays with this adjustment, follow these steps:

a. Pull the tray out of the printer.

b. Rotate the inset blue dial in the tray so that the printer will read the correct size of paper. The toggle switch accesses more sizes.

NOTE:

Setting the dial adjusts the printer’s sensors, but not the paper guide.

I asked the person on site to confirm everything is set to «Letter» and it is.

this still does not work.

I also uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers the terminal server they work from uses to print to this printer.

any ideas?
