Understanding specifications for supported media | HP 1200 specification

Transparencies

zInsert transparencies with the rough side down and the adhesive strip pointing towards the back of the printer.

zUse the Best mode to print transparencies. This mode provides longer drying time and ensures that the ink dries completely before the next page is delivered to the output tray. Allowing wet media to stack up may cause smearing.

Custom-size media

zUse only custom-size media supported by the printer.

zIf your application supports custom-size media, set the media size in the application before printing the document. If not, set the size in the printer driver. You might need to reformat existing documents to print them correctly on custom-size media.
