Paper handling menu

The paper handling menu allows you to configure input trays by size and type. It is important
to correctly configure the trays with this menu before you print for the first time.

Note

If you have used previous HP LaserJet printers, you might be accustomed to configuring

Tray 1 to first mode or cassette mode. To mimic the settings for first mode, configure

Tray 1 for size = ANY and type = ANY. To mimic the settings for cassette mode, set

either the size or type for Tray 1 to a setting other than ANY.
