Load paper

Learn how to choose the right paper for your print job and how to load it into the input tray for printing.

Choose the right paper

Use HP Advanced Photo Paper. It is especially designed to work with the inks in your printer to create beautiful photos.

For a list of available HP-designed photo paper, or to purchase supplies, go to:

●www.hpshopping.com (U.S.)

●www.hp.com/eur/hpoptions (Europe)

●www.hp.com/jp/supply_inkjet (Japan)

●www.hp.com/paper (Asia/Pacific)

The printer is set by default to print the best quality photos on HP Advanced Photo Paper. If you print on a different type of paper, be sure to change the paper type from the printer menu. See Printer menu.

Paper loading tips

Paper loading tips:

●Load paper with the side to be printed facing down.

●You can print photos and documents on a wide variety of paper sizes, from 8 x 13 cm (3 x 5 inch) up to 22 x 61 cm (8.5 x 24 inch). The 10 x 15 cm (4 x 6 inch) photo paper is available with and without tabs.

●Before loading paper, pull the out main paper tray and slide out the paper-width and paper-length guides to make room for the paper. After loading paper, adjust the guides to fit close to the edges of the paper without bending the paper. When finished loading paper, push the main tray back in all the way.

●Load only one type and size of paper at a time in the same tray.

●After loading paper, extend the output tray extension and raise the backstop to catch your printed pages.

Load the main tray

Any supported photo or plain paper media

1.Extend the main tray.

2.Slide the paper-width and paper-length guides to their outermost positions.

3.Load paper with the side to be printed facing down. Make sure the stack of paper fits loosely under the tab on the paper-length guide.
