Recommended papers for printing and copying

If you want the best print quality, HP recommends using HP papers that are specifically designed for the type of project you are printing. If you are printing photos, for example, load HP Premium or HP Premium Plus photo paper in the input tray.

The following is a list of HP papers you can use for copying and printing. Depending on your country/region, some of these papers might not be available.

HP Advanced Photo Paper or HP Photo Paper

HP Advanced Photo Paper or HP Photo Paper is a sturdy, glossy photo paper that features an instant-dry finish for easy handling without smudging. It resists water, smears, fingerprints, and humidity. Your prints have a look and feel comparable to a store- processed photo. It is available in several sizes, including A4, 8.5 x 11 inch, and 10 x 15 cm (4 x 6 inch) (with or without tabs) for printing or copying photos from the product. HP Advanced Photo Paper is marked on the nonprinting corners with the following symbol.
