HP 2500 manual General guidelines

General guidelines

This printer accepts a variety of media, such as cut-sheet paper (including up to 100% recycled fiber content paper), envelopes, labels, grayscale transparencies, and custom-size paper. Properties such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content are important factors affecting printer performance and output quality. Paper that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this manual can cause the following problems:

Poor print quality

Increased jams

￿Premature wear on the printer, requiring repair

Some paper might meet all of the guidelines in this manual and still not produce satisfactory results. This problem might be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels, or other variables over which Hewlett-Packard has no control.

Before purchasing large quantities of paper, always test a sample and make sure the paper meets the requirements specified in this user guide and in the HP LaserJet Printer Family Print Media Guide. For ordering information, see “Supplementary Documentation” on page 25.

CAUTION	Using paper that does not meet HP specifications can cause problems for the printer, requiring
	repair. This repair is not covered by the Hewlett-Packard warranty or service agreements.
