Printing on special media

This section provides information on how to print on media such as envelopes, postcards, and transparencies.

Printing envelopes and cards

You can print envelopes and cards from Tray 1. Cards must be at least 4 by 6 in (101.6 by 152.4 mm) in size. When you are printing on thicker media, use the rear manual feed.

To print envelopes or cards from Tray 1

1Open the printer driver.

2On the Setup tab, select the paper type you are using. For example, if you are printing on HP glossy Greeting Card Paper, select this from the menu.

3Select the envelope or card size from the Paper Size menu.

4Lift the output tray and remove all of the paper from Tray 1.

5Insert the stack of cards or envelopes into the tray.

Be sure to load envelopes into Tray 1 with the flaps facing up and to the right.

6Slide the paper width and length guides in until they stop at the edges of the envelopes or cards.

7Lower the output tray, and then send your job to print.

Tips for printing envelopes

Observe the following guidelines to avoid jams and wrinkled or torn output:

lAvoid envelopes that have a very slick finish, self-stick adhesives, clasps, or windows. Also avoid envelopes with thick, irregular, or curled edges, or areas that are wrinkled, torn, or otherwise damaged.

lUse a sturdy envelope of approximately 16 to 27 lb (60 to 101 gsm) weight. Use tightly constructed envelopes, and make sure the folds are sharply creased.
