How to Print on Different Paper Sizes

Most of the time, when you print on plain paper, cards, labels, and envelopes, you select one of the standard sizes in the Paper Size box on the Setup tab of the HP print settings box. But youÕre not limited to the sizes listed. Just make sure the size of the paper falls within the following dimensions (so the printer rollers can pick up the paper):

¥·Width: 77 mm to 215 mm (3 to 8.5 inches)

¥·Length: 77 mm to 356 mm (3 to 14 inches)

Then follow these steps:

1In the HP print settings box, click the Setup tab, and then select Custom in the Paper Size list. (Go to ÒFinding the HP Print Settings BoxÓ on page 26.)

2Type the dimensions of the paper in the Custom Paper Size box, and then click OK.

3Load the paper in the printer and print as you would for normal paper sizes. (Go to ÒStep 5: Load Paper in Your PrinterÓ on page 7.)

For small paper sizes, be sure to push the small slider snugly against the paper as described in ÒPrinting CardsÓ on page 46.

After you are done printing:

Change the Paper Size in the Setup tab of the HP print settings box to whatever paper size youÕll be printing on next.
