Papers to avoid

Using paper that is too thin or too thick, paper that has a slick texture, or paper that stretches easily can cause paper jams. Using paper that has a heavy texture or does not accept ink can cause printed images to smear, bleed, or not fill in completely.

Papers to avoid for all print and copy jobs

Any size paper other than those listed in the technical specifications. For more information, see Paper sizes.

Paper with cutouts or perforations (unless specifically designed for use with HP inkjet devices).
