Printing on transparencies
Transparencies used in this printer must be able to withstand the 200°C (392°F), the
maximum temperature for the printer.
Use only transparencies recommended for use in laser printers.
Use the left output bin for transparencies. If you select the optional stacker, stacker/stapler,
multifunction finisher, or 8-bin mailbox, use the upper bin for transparencies.
CAUTION Do not attempt to print on both sides of transparencies. Do not attempt to print on envelopes,
custom paper, or paper that is heavier than 199 g/m
2
(58 lb). Printing on other transparencies
can damage the printer.
Guidelines for custom-size paper, card stock, and heavy paper
You can print on custom-size paper from optional Tray 1, Tray 2, Tray 3, or optional Tray 4.
Any paper heavier than 199 g/m
2
(53 lb) must be fed only from optional Tray 1. For paper
specifications, see Paper specifications or go to www.hp.com/support/lj9050_lj9040
.
If you are printing from optional Tray 1, the edge of the paper feeding into the printer must be
at least 98 mm (3.9 inches) wide to allow rollers inside the printer to grab the paper, and a
maximum of 312 mm (12.3 inches). Measuring from the leading edge to the trailing edge of
the paper, the length must be at least 191 mm (7.5 inches) and a maximum of 470 mm
(18.5 inches).
If you are printing from Tray 2 or 3, the edge of the paper feeding into the printer must be at
least 148 mm (5.8 inches) wide to allow rollers inside the printer to grab the paper, and a
maximum of 297 mm (11.7 inches). Measuring from the leading edge to the trailing edge of
the paper, the length must be at least 210 mm (8.3 inches) and a maximum of 432 mm
(17.0 inches).
If you are printing from optional Tray 4, the edge of the paper feeding into the printer must be
at least 182 mm (7.2 inches) wide to allow rollers inside the printer to grab the paper, and a
maximum of 297 mm (11.7 inches). Measuring from the leading edge to the trailing edge of
the paper, the length must be at least 210 mm (8.3 inches) and a maximum of 432 mm
(17.0 inches).
Printing full-bleed images
Because the product can print on specially cut paper up to 312 x 470 mm (12.3 x 18.5 inches),
you can print bleed images of up to 297 x 450 mm (11.7 x 17.7 inches) in size by using crop
marks. Full-bleed images can be printed from Tray 1 only. The default for edge-to-edge or full-
bleed printing is “off”. See your program help for more information.
