Printing Banners
We encourage you to use HP Banner Paper for the very best results. When you use
HP Banner Paper, your banners print with brighter color and denser blacks than if
you use other banner paper. It’s easy to use, too—you don’t have to tear off those
pesky perforated strips! Look for it at a large office supply store.
However, if you use computer or z-fold paper for your banners, we recommend
that you use 20-pound or 75-gsm paper. Always fan the paper to fluff it before
loading it.
Follow your software instructions:
The software program you’re using might require special settings before it
prints banners correctly on your printer. Check the HP DeskJet 8xxC Series
Printer R
elease Notes
(which were installed on your computer with the printer
software) for information regarding your specific software program.
