Device media specifications
HP LaserJet devices produce excellent print quality. The device prints on a variety of media,
such as cut-sheet paper (including recycled paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies, and
custom-sized media. Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important
factors affecting device performance and output quality.
The device can use a variety of paper and other print media in accordance with the guidelines
in this user guide. Media that does not meet these guidelines might cause the following
problems:
● poor print quality
● increased media jams
● premature wear on the device, requiring repair
For best results, use only HP-brand paper and print media. Hewlett-Packard Company cannot
recommend the use of other brands. Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence
or control their quality.
It is possible for media to meet all of the guidelines in this user guide and still not produce
satisfactory results. This might be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature
and humidity levels, or other variables over which Hewlett-Packard has no control.
Before you purchase a large quantity of media, make sure that it meets the requirements
specified in this user guide and in the HP LaserJet Printer Family Print Media Guide. (See
Ordering HP parts and accessories for more information about ordering the guidelines.)
Always test media before you purchase a large quantity.
CAUTION
Using media that does not meet Hewlett-Packard specifications might cause problems for the
device, requiring repair. This repair is not covered by the Hewlett-Packard warranty or service
agreements.
Note
For information about supported media sizes, weights, and other specifications, see Print-
media specifications.
