    Well, I don't know how much this will help, but I have some of suggestions.
    First, see if warranty is still active. You might be able to get the printer replaced if it is.
    Next, lets try the basics. Get paper from a different manufacturer and see if that helps. Bad paper can sometimes imitate wrong sized paper.
    After that, inspect the print platen area and give it a good blast of air from a can to make sure that there aren't any sensors covered in dust. Just try not to touch anything in there, the linear encoder that the print head uses to find it's position can be easily damaged, and if it does get damaged only wrong and stupid things will happen next as far as I've seen (the noise probably will irritate your neighbors, too).
    Finally, the last thing I can think of, inspect the feed roller and if looks like it is in good shape, clean it with soapy water. Avoid cleaning it with alcohol if possible.
    If none of that works, sorry I couldn't help you out further.
