Determining the Print Side of Media

Insert all paper, cards, envelopes, labels, transparencies and banner paper print-side down into the IN tray of the printer. Here are some tips for loading media print side down:

For plain paper, load the side identified by the paper’s packaging as the printside face down.

For letterhead paper, load the letterhead side down and facing the back of the paper tray.

For HP Premium Inkjet Paper, load face down the side identified on the packaging as the print side with the corner arrow facing the back of the paper tray.

For HP Premium Glossy Paper, load the glossy side down.

For index cards or postcards, load the side designed to be written upon face down.

For envelopes, load the side you address face down

For labels, load the paper side down (the slick side up).

For HP Premium Transparency Film, load the rough side down with the sensing strip facing the back of the paper tray.

For HP Premium Banner Paper, load face down the side identified on the packaging as the print side with the corner arrow facing the back of the paper tray.

Using the Single-Sheet Feeder

If your printer is equipped with a single-sheet feeder, the single-sheet feeder allows you to feed a single sheet of paper or other media into the printer without unloading the IN tray. The single-sheet feeder slides freely to the right and left to accommodate the width of the media you insert. Always use paper and other media that conform to the product’s Specifications. Refer to “Product Information/Specifications.”
