Paper specifications

Note

CAUTION

HP LaserJet printers produce excellent print quality. This printer accepts a variety of media, such as cut-sheet paper (including recycled paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies, and custom-size paper. Paper properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors affecting printer performance and output quality.

The printer can use a variety of paper and other print media in accordance with the guidelines in this manual. Paper that does not meet these guidelines may cause the following problems:

●poor print quality

●increased paper jams

●premature wear on the printer, requiring repair

For best results, use only high quality media, such as HP brand paper and print media. Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of other brands. Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence or control their quality.

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

Before purchasing a large quantity of paper, make sure it meets the requirements specified in this user guide and in the HP LaserJet Printer Family Paper Specification Guide. (To order the guide, see “Ordering information” on page 22, or visit the supplies website at http://www.hp.com/go/ljsupplies.) Always test paper before purchasing a large quantity.

Using paper outside HP specifications may cause problems for the printer, requiring repair. This repair is not covered by the Hewlett- Packard warranty or service agreements.
