Understand paper and print media use

●Premature wear on the product, requiring repair

For best results, use only HP-brand paper and print media designed for laser printers. Do not use paper or print media made for inkjet printers. Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of other brands of media because HP cannot control their quality.
