Selecting Paper Types

One of the most important things you can do to assure the best possible performance of your Bubble Jet printer is to select the correct paper. Your printer produces letter quality print on most plain bond papers, including cotton bond and photocopying papers; it does not require special ink jet papers. However, the print quality varies with different paper types. Be sure to test a type of paper before you purchase a large quantity.

Plain Paper

The printer supports paper sizes of letter, letter plus, legal, A4, and A4 plus in portrait orientation. You can use regular copier paper, cotton bond papers, and typical letterhead. Always use paper without curls, folds staples, or damaged edges. Copier paper has a preferred side for printing. Look at the label on the package to see which side to print on first.
