tips for loading other types of paper
The following table provides guidelines for loading certain types of paper and
transparency film. For best results, adjust the paper settings each time you
change paper types and paper sizes. For more information, see set the paper
type on page 15.
paper tips
HP papers
• HP Premium Inkjet Paper: Locate the gray arrow on the nonprinting
side of the paper, and then insert paper with the arrow side facing up.
• HP Premium or Premium Plus Photo Paper: Load the glossy (print) side
down. Always load at least five sheets of regular paper in the paper
tray first, and then place the photo paper on top of the regular paper.
• HP Premium or Premium Plus Inkjet Transparency Film: Insert the film so
that the white transparency strip (with arrows and the HP logo) is on
top and is going into the tray first.
• HP Inkjet T-Shirt Transfer Iron-On: Flatten the transfer sheet completely
before using it; do not load curled sheets. (To prevent curling, keep
transfer sheets sealed in the original package until you are ready to
use them.) Manually feed one sheet at a time, with the unprinted side
facing down (the blue stripe faces up).
• HP Greeting Cards, HP Linen Greeting Cards, or HP Felt-Textured
Greeting Cards: Insert a small stack of HP greeting-card paper, with
the print-side down into the paper tray until it stops.
Labels
(works only with
printing)
• Always use letter-size or A4-size label sheets designed for use with
HP inkjet products (like Avery Inkjet Labels), and make sure that the
labels are not over two years old.
• Fan the stack of labels to make sure none of the pages are sticking
together.
• Place a stack of label sheets on top of standard paper in the paper
tray, print-side down. Do not insert labels one sheet at a time.
Postcards or Hagaki
cards (only works
with printing)
Insert a stack of postcards or hagaki cards with the print-side down into
the paper tray until it stops. Line the postcards up on the right side of the
paper tray, slide the paper-width guide up against the left side of the
cards, and then slide the paper-length guide in until it stops.
4-by-6 inch photo
paper (works only
with printing)
Insert the photo paper with the print-side down into the paper tray until it
stops. Place the long edge of the photo paper against the right side of the
paper tray, slide the paper-width guide up against the long edge of the
photo paper, and slide the paper-length guide in until it stops. If the photo
paper you are using has perforated tabs, load the photo paper so that the
tabs are closest to you.
