Tips for selecting and using print media
For the best results, observe the following guidelines:
• Always use media that conforms to the device specifications. For more
information, see
Understand specifications for supported media.
• Load only one type of media at a time into a tray. If you place a special media on
top of a plain media, then you may end up with a paper jam or an incorrect print.
• For Tray 1 and Tray 2, load media print-side down, aligned against the back of the
tray. Center the media in the input tray, and adjust the paper-width guides. For
more information, see
Load media.
NOTE: Tray 2 is sold as an accessory. For ordering information, see
Accessories.
• Tray 2 is designed to hold only plain paper.
• Do not overload the trays. For more information, see
Understand specifications for
supported media. HP recommends loading special media no higher than 2/3 full.
• To prevent jams, poor print quality, and other printing problems, avoid the following
media:
◦ Multipart forms
◦ Media that is damaged, curled, or wrinkled
◦ Media with cutouts or perforations
◦ Media that is heavily textured, embossed, or does not accept ink well
◦ Media that is too lightweight or stretches easily
Cards and envelopes
• Avoid envelopes that have a very slick finish, self-stick adhesives, clasps, or
windows. Also, avoid cards and envelopes with thick, irregular, or curled edges, or
areas that are wrinkled, torn, or otherwise damaged.
• Use tightly constructed envelopes, and make sure the folds are sharply creased.
• Load envelopes with the flaps facing up and to the right or the back of the device.
