Managing special printing situations

Printing a different first page

Use the following procedure to print the first page of a document on a different media type than the
remainder of the document. For example, you can print the first page of a document on letterhead
paper and the remainder on plain paper.

1.

From your software program or printer driver, specify a tray for the first page and another tray
for the remaining pages.

2.

Load the special media into the tray that you specified in step 1.

3.

Load the media for the remaining pages of the document into another tray.

4.

Print the document.

You can also print on different media by using the printer control panel or printer driver to set the
types of media that are loaded in the trays and then selecting the first and remaining pages by media
type.

Stopping a print request

You can stop a print request by using the printer control panel or using your software program. For
instructions on how to stop a print request from a computer on a network, see the online Help for the
specific network software.

NOTE

It can take some time for all printing to clear after you have canceled a print job.

To stop the current print job from the printer control panel

1.

Press

Stop

on the printer control panel.

2.

Press

to highlight CANCEL CURRENT JOB, and then press to cancel the job.

If the print job is too far into the printing process, you might not have the option to cancel it.

To stop the current print job from the software program

A dialog box will appear briefly on the screen, giving you the option to cancel the print job.

If several requests have been sent to the printer through your software, they might be waiting in a
print queue (for example, in Windows Print Manager). See the software documentation for specific
instructions about canceling a print request from the computer.

If a print job is waiting in a print queue (computer memory) or print spooler (Windows 98, 2000, XP,
or Me), delete the print job there.

For Windows 98 or Windows Me, click Start, click Settings, and then click Printers. For Windows
2000 and Windows XP, click Start and then click Printers. Double-click the HP LaserJet 5200 printer
icon to open the print spooler. Select the print job that you want to cancel, and then press

Delete

. If

the print job is not cancelled, you might need to shut down and restart the computer.
