The 1320n has a completely closed tray. To insert paper you must take it out and to print you must reinsert it. When it is completely inserted it presses against a switch telling the printer to continue printing.
Inkjet printers have a tray which is not removable and open. Here you have to press a button when you have finished inserting the paper.
This is all for the printer not starting to print while you hold the paper still inyour hand, to not tear apart a sheet and getting a page printed on the torn sheet.
The cheap HP lasers have no buttons and an open tray. They assume the continue signal after reloading paper coming from the software. At least on the HP LaserJet 1000, 1005, 1018, and 1020 this signal is the command to poll the device ID. And this works on my 1020. If I do something which polls the device ID, the printer continues printing the rest of the job.
Perhaps the LaserJet P10xx series needs another signal. Can someone from HP help here?
