4 Load originals and load paper

This chapter provides instructions for loading originals on the glass to copy, scan, or fax; choosing the best paper type for your job; loading paper in the main and photo trays; and avoiding paper jams.

Load originals

You can load many different types and sizes of paper in your HP All-in-One, including letter or A4 paper, photo paper, transparencies, and envelopes. The HP All-in-One is set by default to detect the size and type of paper you load in the main tray automatically and then adjust its settings to generate the highest quality output for that paper.

Load an original

You can copy, scan, or fax originals up to 30.5 cm (12 inches) long by loading them on the glass. You should also follow these instructions when loading a proof sheet on the glass for photo printing.

Note Many of the special features will not work correctly if the glass and lid backing are not clean. For more information, see Clean the HP All-in-One.

To load an original on the glass

1.Lift the lid and place your original print side down on the right front corner of the glass. Make sure that the original is flush against the edges of the glass.

If you are loading a proof sheet, make sure the top of the proof sheet is lined up against the right and bottom edges of the glass.

2.Close the lid.
