Colored paper
Colored paper should be of the same high quality as white
xerographic paper. Pigments used must be able to withstand the
printers fusing temperature of 190° C(374° F) for 0.1 second without
deterioration. Do not use paper with a colored coating that was added
after the paper was produced.
The printer creates colors by printing patterns of dots, overlaying and
varying their spacing to produce various colors. Varying the shade or
color of your paper will affect the shades of your printed colors.
Envelopes
Note Envelopes can only be printed from Tray 1. Hewlett-Packard
recommends configuring Tray 1 as a cassette and setting the trays
media size to the specific envelope size. See
