Purchasing paper and other print media
You can print on a variety of print media, such as heavy or light paper, envelopes, labels, and
custom-sized print media from tray 1. You can print on standard-weight paper from any tray. You
can also print to paper that has up to 100 percent recycled fiber content. Properties such as
weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors affecting printer performance and
output quality. To achieve the best possible print quality, use only high-quality paper intended for
color laser printers.
See “Print media specifications” on page 109 for more details.
Always test a sample of paper before purchasing large quantities. Your paper supplier should
understand the requirements specified in the HP LaserJet Printer Family Print Media Guide. See
“Print media specifications” on page 109 for more information. For ordering information, see
