set the paper type

If you want to use a different type of paper, such as photo paper, transparency film, t-shirt transfer paper, or brochures, simply load that paper in the paper tray. You should then change the paper type settings to ensure the best print quality.

HP recommends paper type settings according to the type of paper you’re using.

This setting refers to copy options only. If you want to set the paper type for printing, set the properties from the Print dialog box.
