Hi, this error generally occurs when the printer is set for a different paper type than the print driver. Check what paper type the printer is set for by printing a config page, and either make sure that the paper type setting in the print driver matches that paper type (labels, cardstock, etc.) or change the paper type that the printer shows to reflect the type of paper that you are actually using, if it's showing the incorrect type.
