Note

Transparencies

When printing on transparencies, use the following guidelines:

●To prevent transparencies from bonding together, always send them to the top output bin.

●Handle transparencies using the edges. Oils from your fingers that are deposited on the transparency can cause print quality problems.

●Use only overhead transparencies recommended for use in this printer. Hewlett-Packard recommends using HP Color LaserJet Transparencies with this printer. HP products are designed to work together for optimum printing results.

Glossy paper

When printing on glossy paper, select the glossy print setting in the printer driver. You can also use the printer control panel to set the media type to GLOSS for the input tray you are using. Because this affects all print jobs, it is important to return the printer back to its original settings once your job has printed. See “Configuring input trays” on page 76 for more information.

Hewlett-Packard recommends using HP Color LaserJet Soft Gloss paper with this printer. HP products are designed to work together for optimum printing results. If you choose not to use HP Color LaserJet Soft Gloss paper with this printer, print quality may be compromised.
