Question Why is my printer ejecting through rear

[Novel8]

My Samsung ML 2950 printer all of a sudden is ejecting hard copies through the rear of the printer intead of the front. I am getting what i am printing, they are not coming out blank. Is there a way to correct this. I checked set up and saw no way or know of anyway to correct this if possible. Worst comes to worst I would accept it as long as its printing. Do not know the reaction i would get when i need to do duplex printing under these conditions.

What operating system do you use?

Have you checked all printer properties & options in OS

First thing is to check every single paper guide lever to make sure that all of the paper guides are in the proper position. This sounds like the rear guide is not.

Thank you,,,,could you be more precise i am not hardware savvy. I do recall in the past, at times my paper tray would be empty and i will get the red flag so to speak. how does one check levels especially in the rear?

Your manual will tell you everything you need to know. Bottom line is that you need to know your hardware if you intend to use it.

I misplaced the manual years ago and doubt if it would show or inform a person the actual breakdown of how to fix hardware problems with the exception of the obvious ones. With your anaolgy and this maybe a bit stretch but one to buy a car needs to be a mechanic,
