  • What are you printing that does this, versus what doesn't do it?

  • So, you're saying you can print the same document twice in a row, and once it will do this and once it won't? Yeah, sounds like a mechanical issue, I'm with @DaveM.

There are some factors that can cause this. If the air is dry, the paper will often stick. It is why many printer makers suggest "fanning" the paper before loading. Some paper is more prone to this.

The pickup rollers will also get smooth after use and then they slip slightly and will grab more than one sheet. These may need replacing or a treatment with a product called "rubber renew".
