Types of print media to avoid

The following characteristics can affect the performance of the HP LaserJet 4200/4300 printer unless the paper or other print media used is specifically designed to work with HP LaserJet printers.

●Print media that is very rough, highly textured, or heavily embossed.

●Multipart forms.

●Print media that offsets materials or discolors.

●Print media that is damaged, curled, wrinkled, or irregularly shaped.

●Paper that is extremely shiny or glossy.

●Paper, labels, envelopes, or transparencies that produce undesirable emissions or melt when exposed to a fusing temperature of 230° C (446° F) for 0.05 second.

●Media coatings, dyes, or inks that produce undesirable emissions or melt when exposed to a fusing temperature of 230° C (446° F) for 0.05 second.

●Envelopes that have an open flap with the adhesive exposed so that closing the flap seals the envelope.

●Envelopes with clasps, snaps, tie strings, windows, or synthetic materials. These materials can severely damage the printer.

●Envelopes that are not square, straight, or constructed correctly. See “Envelope construction” on page 17.

●Envelopes with a basis weight less than 60 g/m2 (16 lb) or greater than 105 g/m2 (28 lb).

●Envelopes with baggy construction or folds that are not sharply creased.

Note	Some media types might not work in the printer because of differences in manufacturer
	specifications or environmental conditions.
