ABSTRACT:
Aspects for providing an out of paper indication by a printer are described. The aspects include controlling paper ejection during a print job to provide an out of paper indication with a last sheet of a paper supply in a printer. The controlling of the paper ejection further includes starting ejection of a page of the print job, determining if the page being ejected comprises the last sheet, completing ejection of the page when the page does not comprise the last sheet, and stopping ejection of the page when the page does comprise the last sheet. Additionally, the partial ejection of the last sheet is maintained until paper is added to the paper supply.
