Guidelines for using media
The following sections provide guidelines and instructions for printing on transparencies,
envelopes, and other special media. Guidelines and specifications are included to help you
select media that optimizes print quality and avoid media that might cause jams or damage
the printer.
Paper
For best results, use conventional 75 g/m
2
(20 lb) paper. Make sure that the paper is of good
quality and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled
or bent edges.
If you are unsure about what type of paper you are loading (such as bond or recycled),
check the label on the package of paper.
Some paper causes print quality problems, jamming, or damage to the printer.

sure that the appropriate media
type has been selected.
Dropouts, jamming, or curl Stored improperly Store paper flat in its moisture-
proof wrapping.
Increased gray background
shading

Excessive curl
Problems with feeding
Too moist, wrong grain
direction, or short-grain
construction
Use long-grain paper.
Check the printer and make
sure that the appropriate media
type has been selected.
Jamming or damage to printer Cutouts or perforations Do not use paper with cutouts
or perforations.
Problems with feeding Ragged edges Use good quality paper.
NOTE
The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the paper. Make sure that any colored
paper or preprinted forms use inks that are compatible with the printer temperature. The
printer's maximum temperature is 200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second.
Do not use letterhead that is printed with low-temperature inks, such as those used in some
types of thermography.
Do not use raised letterhead.
Do not use transparencies designed for Inkjet printers or other low-temperature printers. Use
only transparencies that are specified for use with HP LaserJet printers.
