Purchasing paper and other print media

You can print on a variety of print media, such as heavy or light paper, envelopes, labels, and custom-sized print media from tray 1. You can print on standard-weight paper from all three trays. You can also print to paper that has up to 100 percent recycled fiber content. Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors affecting printer performance and output quality. To achieve the best possible print quality, use only high-quality paper intended for color laser printers.

See “Print media specifications” on page 123 for more details.

Always test a sample of paper before purchasing large quantities. Your paper supplier should understand the requirements specified in the HP LaserJet Printer Family Print Media Guide. See “Print media specifications” on page 123 for more information. For ordering information, see “Supplementary Documentation” on page 25, or visit http://www.hp.com/ljsupplies.
