Printing on Special Media
Printing Letterhead and Preprinted Forms
If letterhead and forms will be printed regularly, it may be useful to
reserve and lock-out a tray for these special papers. If letterhead and
form printing is only occasional, Tray 1 can be used to easily print these
special papers.
Regular Printing on Special Paper
The HP LaserJet 5/5M printer can be set to recognize a paper source
(such as Tray 1) as being reserved for letterhead, preprinted forms, or
other type of special paper. This is helpful when several multi-page
jobs print on more than one type of media. For instance, if a letter is
longer than one page, the first page may be printed on letterhead and
subsequent pages on regular paper.
If the printer is networked, locking-out the tray in which the preprinted
paper is loaded will remove the tray from the automatic selection during
printing. The printer will not draw from a reserved tray unless
specifically requested to do so. This may help prevent other users from
accidentally printing their jobs on the letterhead or forms. To print from
the reserved tray it must be selected from your software application.
To reserve a tray for a specified paper type, see the section “Reserving
or Locking-out Trays,” earlier in this chapter.
