    quick guess is it has a silver backing and the rear sensor is miss reading it as not there.
    could try a bit of black vinyl over the rear media sensor may even have to do the front one aswell and don’t use find edge setup

    Yip, i second what Chris says. We covered our sensor shortly after purchasing the printer as it came up end of roll too many time right in the middle of a print (usually alarge one lol)
