HP (Hewlett-Packard) HP LaserJet 5 Printer User Manual


 
Preparing for Printing
Selecting Paper and Other Print Media
HP LaserJet printers produce documents of excellent print quality. You
can print on a variety of print media, such as paper (including recycled
paper), envelopes, labels, overhead transparencies and custom sized
media. Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are
important factors affecting printer performance and output quality.
Note
To achieve the best possible print quality use only high quality, copier-grade
paper. See Appendix Afor more detailed paper specifications.
Note
Always test a sample of paper before purchasing large quantities.
Your paper supplier should understand the requirements specified in the
HP LaserJet Printer Family Paper Specifications Guide (HP part
number 5961-0920). See the HP Support pages at the front of the
manual for ordering information.
Hewlett-Packard neither warrants nor recommends the use of a
particular brand of print media. Media properties are subject to change
by the manufacturer and HP has no control over these changes.
