The paper sensor is either not working, stuck in the open position, or has somehow been moved. What printer do you have? That may get you a more specific answer.

Check paper sensors and make sure they are not coated with paper dust or jammed in a single position. Clean any rubber/plastic rollers with 71% rubbing alcohol (or less -- do not use higher concentrations) and try again.

Depending on the model of printer, paper pickup rollers (or paper separation pads) may be worn down and if they are you will need to replace them.
