Why does my Epson Printer paper not feed reliably, causing tears and jams?
- SStephanie GuerraAug 22, 2025
Unreliable paper feed in your Epson printer, leading to frequent tears or paper jams, can be due to several factors: 1. The paper supply may not be aligned correctly with the paper feed tractors; ensure it is properly aligned. 2. The paper might be stretched too tightly. Slightly reduce tension by adjusting the right tractor closer to the left one. 3. The front feed path could be obstructed. Make sure it is clear and consider using the bottom feed path instead. 4. The paper might be catching on the paper box. Trim the box or remove the paper from it. 5. The paper might be too heavy or light for the front feed path. Consider using the bottom feed path.
