HP CP1515N colour laser paper Jams on page 3 of multipage print.

Has anyone come across this type of jam problem.

Printer using Tray 2 multi sheet tray (1 is manual feed slot). Printing individual print jobs of single pages one after the other it is fine. However if you print a multi page job 3rd page causes a paper jam every time. Paper stops with leading edge at what I would call the registration assembly before it proceeds to enter the photo drum area. To clear you don't even have to open back and remove the paper just open and close front cover and when printer reinitialises it ejects jammed sheet through the normal output path quite happily, so why did it Jam? Must be a timing or sensor problem. Have cleaned pickup rollers and had air duster down where I suspect there maybe an optical sensor on registration area but no different.

just had the same issue but every other page. At first I did not see how anything could be jammed in the machine as 1 page would always print but eventually I did find a small piece of wrinkled paper inside and it worked fine after that. Not sure why one page would go through fine but it did.

Hmmmm thanks for that. Perhaps I need to have a closer look at the paper path and give it a good clean out. It is strange as you say why one makes it through but next doesn't.
