Hello sidandress,

There are several possibilities as to why the printer's feed assembly is pulling in multiple sheets of paper instead of just one sheet at a time. Therefore to view the recommended steps to see if a resolution can be found is located here

Once at the link, please scroll down to the problem titled "The printer advances multiple sheets of paper" since your issue is not related to a paper jam.

If you find going through the steps has not resolved your issue then the "ADF Feeder Assembly Unit" may need to be replaced. The website for purchasing parts is provided at the end of this answer, should you decide to perform the repair.

On the other hand, should you decide repairing the device is costly, the other options are:

A) Tolerate the printer pulling in too many pages until the printer stops working altogether sometime down the line. (Don't enjoy adding this fact)

B) Purchase a new printer for probably a little more than the cost to repair yours. (Especially if on sale at the time)

Here are the parts list, which may (or may not) be helpful.

The part you would need is called the 'ADF Printer Feed' which includes the Feed motor, gears and rollers

Hope this information provided helps

Much appreciation to those who acknowledge our members for their contribution toward finding a solution.
