Colored paper

●Colored paper should be of the same high quality as white xerographic paper.

●Pigments used must be able to withstand the fuser temperature of 200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second without deterioration.

●Do not use paper with a colored coating that was added after the paper was produced.

Custom-size media

Use the main input tray for multiple sheets. See Supported media weights and sizes on page 21 for the supported media sizes.

CAUTION: Make sure that the sheets are not stuck together before you load them.

Labels

HP recommends that you print labels from the priority input tray. See Loading media on page 24 for more information.

CAUTION: Do not feed a sheet of labels through the device more than once. The adhesive degrades and might damage the device.

Label construction

When selecting labels, consider the quality of the following components:

●Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 200°C (392°F), the maximum fuser temperature.

●Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.

●Curl: Before printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (0.5 inch) of curl in any direction.

●Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation.

Transparencies

Transparencies must be able to withstand 200°C (392°F), the maximum fuser temperature.

CAUTION: You can print transparencies from the 150-sheet tray (tray 1). However, do not load more than 75 transparencies at one time into the tray.
