The Ricoh M C251FW may show a "not detecting paper" message with the paper tray inserted due to one or more of the following reasons:
1. The paper tray is empty. 2. The paper tray does not contain A4, Letter, or Legal size paper. 3. The paper tray’s side fence is set too tightly. 4. The paper is too thick or too thin. 5. Printed or used paper is loaded instead of new sheets. 6. Sheets are sticking together and not feeding properly.
To resolve the issue, load valid size paper, adjust the side fence correctly, use recommended paper, and fan the sheets before loading.

Questions and answers
we are getting a message that says not detecting paper with paper tray in the machine
The Ricoh M C251FW may show a "not detecting paper" message with the paper tray inserted due to one or more of the following reasons:
1. The paper tray is empty.
2. The paper tray does not contain A4, Letter, or Legal size paper.
3. The paper tray’s side fence is set too tightly.
4. The paper is too thick or too thin.
5. Printed or used paper is loaded instead of new sheets.
6. Sheets are sticking together and not feeding properly.
To resolve the issue, load valid size paper, adjust the side fence correctly, use recommended paper, and fan the sheets before loading.
