PIXMA MX922 not loading paper lower cassette

Paper not feeding from the lower cassette and I get error code 1008 that says there is no paper in the lower cassette. I have cleaned the roller, loaded and unloaded and re-loaded paper, aligned the tabs on the paper tray appropriately....all to no avail.

Any ideas to get this printing again?

Unfortunately, that did not help. The settings were correct. The printer is making noise as if it's trying to feed the paper but it doesn't. Every once in a blue moon the paper will feed and print fine but the majority of the time it stops and I get the error code.
