• When using thin special media, make sure that the tray is completely loaded. If you
are using special media that is only available in small quantities, try placing the
special media on top of other paper of the same size to help fill the tray. (Some
media is picked up more easily if the tray is full.)
• If you are using thick special media (such as brochure paper), load media so that
the tray is between 1/4 and 3/4 full. If necessary, place the media on top
of other paper of the same size so that the stack height is within this range.
• Use HP media for optimum performance and efficiency.
