I have a Samsung SCX-4623F that takes two paper sheets at time.
What happens is that if I insert just one sheet in the tray it takes that sheet correctly and prints out everything.
When I put more than one sheet in the tray, the printer takes a sheet, then when half of the sheet is picked up it picks up another sheet. That way the printer stops working and I have to manually remove the paper from it.
I already ordered a new pick up roller and replaced it but the problem persists.
What should I do next? What can cause this issue?
Change your paper stock. – Tetsujin – 2015-05-05T19:14:28.067
@Tetsujin What do you mean? It's a stock that works perfectly with every other printer I have (I currently have one inkjet printer and another laser printer), so I don't think it's the problem... – Harlandraka – 2015-05-05T19:16:12.600
1[sorry, was adding info to a rapid comment]… or at least flip it over & properly get some air in it before stacking in the tray. Put index fingers under both nearest corners; lift your fingers without holding the sheets, just make the corners bend up; then grip. Take your grip back down to 'level' with the stack. Lift the stack & slap on a flat surface gently. Note how every sheet is marginally air-gapped from all the others except for your held corners. Place the sheets back in the tray; gently smooth that air out again. Also, moisture content in the paper can affect pickup. – Tetsujin – 2015-05-05T19:19:27.957
BTW, this is not from a computer perspective - I spent years in the printing industry ;-) – Tetsujin – 2015-05-05T19:19:59.860
Ok, I tried what you said but the problem persists... I have also just opened the printer to see if there was some piece of broken paper in there but it seems to be clean... – Harlandraka – 2015-05-05T19:36:00.623
ah, OK, sorry. I have a different Samsung, older, which sometimes displays the same symptom, but I've never known it persist beyond a quick paper rejig. Hope you find a solution. – Tetsujin – 2015-05-05T19:39:19.590
