HP LaserJet Tough paper

When printing on HP LaserJet Tough paper, use the following guidelines:

Handle HP LaserJet Tough paper using the edges. Oils from your fingers deposited on HP LaserJet Tough paper can cause print quality problems.

Use only HP LaserJet Tough paper with this printer. HP products are designed to work together for optimum printing results.

In either the software application or the printer driver, select TOUGH PAPER as the media type, or print from a tray that is configured for HP LaserJet Tough paper.

CAUTION

Transparent media that are not designed for LaserJet printing will melt in the printer, causing

 

damage to the printer.

Preprinted forms and letterhead

When printing on preprinted forms and letterhead, observe the following guidelines for best results:

Forms and letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant inks that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the printer’s fusing temperature of approximately 190° C (374° F) or 0.1 second.

Inks must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect any printer rollers.

Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes during storage.

Before loading preprinted paper such as forms and letterhead, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off of preprinted paper.

When duplex printing on the HP Color LaserJet 3700 series printer, load preprinted forms and letterhead into Tray 2 and Tray 3 first side up, top edge toward the back of the tray. To load preprinted forms and letterhead into Tray 1, load them with the first side down, bottom edge in first.

When simplex (1-sided) printing, load preprinted forms and letterhead into Tray 2 and Tray 3 face-up with the top edge of the page to the left. To load preprinted forms and letterhead into Tray 1, place them in the tray with the side to be printed on facing up, and top, short edge in first.

Recycled paper

This printer supports the use of recycled paper. Recycled paper must meet the same specifications as standard paper. See the HP LaserJet Printer Family Print Media Specification Guide. Hewlett-Packard recommends that recycled paper contain no more than 5 percent ground wood.
