This document feeder has a pretty tight paper path and the most common reason for jams is staples being dropped or potentially a remnant piece of paper (like a torn corner) from a previous job that was jammed. Please open the jam cover and lift up the pick roller and visually inspect for any foreign object. Sometimes you can flush the non-visible part of the paper path with a business card, but that can be tricky and you won't want to use something that will rip and cause more problems.

Although it is unlikely a consistent failure would be caused by firmware, you could try upgrading firmware. http://h20565.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=4337754..&lang=en&cc=us.

If can not find anything the paper path, you'll want to call support. https://www.hp.com/us-en/contact-hp/contact.html


Hope that is helpful.
