Hi all, I recently have been having a problem with my HP Laserjet P2015d where the way i can get it to print each page of a document, i need to open the front cover (like where the ink cartridge is) and then close it, to print the next page. If i don't open the cover before i start printing, it errors out with a blinking orange light at the alert indicator. It doesn't send any error codes to the computer though so i can't really see what the issue is. But from what i can hear, it tries to feed the paper from the cassette, but fails, unless i open up the front then close it, and for some reason it works just for one page. When it tries to go to the next, it fails again. How would i fix this, or is it a bust? Thanks
 
Solution
Check the paper path for any stuck paper (sometimes very little pieces will cause issues and are tough to see), reseat the ink, check the rollers, make sure the main paper tray is setup properly and nothing is loose like the guides for paper size.
