Printing on special media

Use these guidelines when printing on special types of media.

Transparencies

When printing on transparencies, use the following guidelines:

zHandle transparencies using the edges. Oils from your fingers deposited on the transparency can cause print quality problems.

zUse only overhead transparencies recommended for use in this printer. Hewlett-Packard recommends using HP Color LaserJet Transparencies with this printer. HP products are designed to work together for optimum printing results.

zIn either the software application or the driver, select TRANSPARENCY as the media type, or print from a tray that is configured for transparencies.

CAUTION Transparencies not designed for LaserJet printing will melt in the printer, causing damage to the printer.

Glossy paper

zIn either the software application or the driver, select Glossy as the media type, or print from a tray that is configured for glossy paper.

zUse the control panel to set the media type to GLOSS for the input tray being used.

zBecause this affects all print jobs, it is important to return the printer to its original settings once the job has printed. See Configuring input trays for more information.
