Printer prints on multiple sheets at once

If the printer prints on multiple sheets at once, check the following:

Paper weight

The printer might print on multiple sheets of paper at once if the paper is under the
recommended paper weight. Use paper that is within the recommended specifications.
For paper weight specifications, see the reference guide that came with the printer.

Paper might be loaded improperly

The printer might print on multiple sheets of paper at once if the paper is loaded too far
toward the back of the printer or if the paper guide is not positioned firmly against the
paper. Reload the paper into the In tray, pushing the paper until you feel resistance, and
then slide the paper guide firmly against the edge of the paper stack.
The printer might also print on multiple sheets at once if different paper types are loaded
in the In tray. For example, photo paper might be mixed with plain paper. Empty the In
tray and load only the paper type that is appropriate for the document that you are
printing.
