Printing and loading media

Selecting print media

Your printer is designed to print on a variety of media types (such as plain paper, photo paper,

envelopes, and transparencies) and sizes. The printer works well with most office paper types,

and provides the best results on paper that accepts ink well. Always use media that conforms

with the types, sizes, and weights listed in “Understanding specifications for supported media”.

It is best to test a variety of media types before buying large quantities. Find a media type that

works well.

Tips for selecting and using print media

 Paper that is too thin, has a slick texture, or “stretches” easily can feed improperly through

the printer's paper path.

 Paper that is heavily textured or does not accept ink well can cause poorly filled graphics

or text.

 To ensure that media feeds properly, load only one type of media at a time in the input tray

or the manual feed slots.

 Do not use media that is damaged, curled, or wrinkled. It is recommended not to use

paper with cutouts or perforations or paper that is heavily textured or embossed.

 Try to use a paper type that has previously worked well with your printer.

 If you are printing more than one page on transparencies, photo paper, or other special

paper, the printing pauses and the Resume light blinks after each page is printed. This

allows the printed page to dry before printing the next page. You can press the Resume

button if you do not want to wait for the printed page to dry before printing the following

page; however, it is recommended to allow each page to dry.

Use HP media for optimum print quality. These print media types are specifically designed to

work well with the printer. For ordering information and part numbers, see “HP supplies and

accessories”.
