How to Print Photos

1Click the Setup tab in the HP print settings box. (Go to “Finding the HP Print Settings Box” on page 26.)

2Click the Select Paper Type button, then select Photo Papers and the appropriate photo paper (either HP Premium Photo Paper or Other Photo Paper).

3Make sure the Best print quality button is selected.

4Load one of the recommended HP photo papers in your printer, making sure the HP photo paper is inserted glossy-side down.

After you are done printing:

1Change the Paper Type in the Setup tab of the HP print settings box back to Plain Paper or to whatever is appropriate for what you will be printing on next.

2Remove the photo paper from the IN tray and replace it with whatever paper you’ll print on next.
