These are the types and sizes of papers recommended for copying

paper types

If you want the best print quality, we recommend HP Papers. Using paper that is too thin, paper that has a slick texture, or paper that stretches easily can cause paper jams. Using paper that has a heavy texture or does not accept ink can cause printed images to smear, bleed, or not be filled in completely. For more information about HP Papers, go to our website at:

•HP Premium Paper is the ultimate coated paper for high-resolution usage. A smooth, matte finish makes it ideal for your special documents.

•HP Bright White Paper delivers high-contrast colors and sharp text. It is opaque enough for two-sided color usage, with no show-through, which makes it ideal for newsletters, reports, and flyers.

•HP Premium Photo Paper, Glossy and Matte, and HP Premium Plus Photo Paper, Glossy and Matte are high-quality, glossy-finish or matte-finish, photo-based papers. They look and feel like photographs and can be mounted under glass or in an album. Photo papers dry rapidly and resist fingerprints and smudges.

•HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film makes your color presentations vivid and even more impressive. This film is easy to use and handle and dries quickly without smudging.

•HP Matte Greeting Cards, HP Glossy Greeting Card Paper, HP Textured Greeting Cards, Ivory, Half-Fold and HP Textured Greeting Cards, White, Half-Fold allow you to make your own greeting cards.

•HP Brochure & Flyer Paper, Glossy or HP Brochure & Flyer Paper, Matte is matte-coated or glossy-coated on both sides for two-sided use. It is the perfect choice for near-photographic reproductions and business graphics for report covers, special presentations, brochures, mailers, and calendars.
