If I understand your problem correctly, then it sounds as if your paper tray may be out of alignment, causing the paper to load wrongly. The DJ850C is a fairly old printer ( I have one that I bought in 1995 :D), so maybe it has just reached the end of it's natural life. Given the price of similar printers nowadays, and the price of ink cartridges, unless somebody else has a simple solution, you may just have to consider a replacement. However, I would try pulling the paper tray out of the front and checking the paper path through the printer for obvious blockages or anything else that might send the paper off line.

Cheers
