Paper types and sizes

The HP Fax is designed to work optimally with plain paper (cotton bond: 20 lb.,

75 g/m 2) in the following sizes: A4, Letter, and Legal.

_,'-TIP:Some papers have a side that'sbeen conditioned for printing. The print side is usually indicated on the paper's packaging. Always load with the print side facing you.

You can load up to 50 sheets of paper in the paper tray. Satisfactory print and receive quality can be obtained with many types of plain paper. Since the quality of plain paper varies widely, test the print quality before buying large quantities of paper.

Your machine uses a variety of papers including:

•Copier paper

•Bond paper

•Dual-purpose paper

Because all paper varies in physical characteristics, you can receive mixed results from different packages of paper even though the packages contain the same type of paper. If you encounter undesirable results, try the other side of the paper, a different type, or another package of the same kind of paper.

Do not use the following types of paper with your machine:

•Continuous form feed paper

•Synthetic paper (Tyvek ®, etc.)

•Thermal paper

•Multi-sheet forms and documents

•Chemically treated paper (pressure-sensitive paper, carbon-coated paper, etc.)

•Coated (glossy, photo, etc.)

•Papers with raised, embossed lettering

Document types and sizes

The following document size is acceptable when you send a fax.

•The minimum document size is 148 mm (5.8 in.) wide by 128 mm (5 in.) long.

•The maximum size is 216 mm (8.5 in.) wide by 356 mm (14 in.) long.

Follow these tips to ensure worry-flee faxing.

•Be sure that your document is dry and free of staples, paper clips, and other foreign objects.

•If you are sending more than one sheet, make sure the bottom sheet enters first. Insert the sheets with a slight push to ensure smooth feeding.

•For multiple sheets, all pages of the document must be the same size and paper type.
