How to Print on Different Paper Sizes
Most of the time, when you print on plain paper, cards, labels, and envelopes, you
select one of the standard sizes in the Paper Size box on the Setup tab of the
HP print settings box. But you’re not limited to the sizes listed. Just make sure the
size of the paper falls within the following dimensions (so the printer rollers can
pick up the paper):
Width: 77 mm to 215 mm (3 to 8.5 inches)
Length: 77 mm to 356 mm (3 to 14 inches)
Then follow these steps:
1 In the HP print settings box, click the Setup tab, and then select Custom in the
Paper Size list. (Go to “Finding the HP Print Settings Box” on page 26.)
2 Type the dimensions of the paper in the Custom Paper Size box, and then click
OK.
3 Load the paper in the printer and print as you would for normal paper sizes. (Go
to “Step 5: Load Paper in Your Printer” on page 7.)
For small paper sizes, be sure to push the small slider snugly against the paper
as described in “Printing Cards” on page 46.
After you are done printing:
Change the Paper Size in the Setup tab of the HP print settings box to whatever
paper size you’ll be printing on next.
