Epson P800- paper source error- mystery roll detected
« on: April 15, 2020, 11:05:57 am »

I am trying to print cards through the sheet feeder.  I do this all the time.  Today, however, I am being told that "A roll paper is loaded, but the paper source selected in the printer driver is not appropriate."  I have never had a roll loaded.  I don't even own roll paper. 

I have already matched the paper source setting on the printer and computer.  I am at a standstill.  Help!

try turning everything off. Unplug the printer, reboot the computer and start over. This fixes lots of problems for me...

Changed to roll in driver's paper source options accidentally?
Rear support opened accidentally?
Media slipped into the roll paper feed slot accidentally?

To be more specific:
Win or Mac?
Where are you told that - on the printer display or on your computer? And when - after hitting "print" button or before?
