The paper type is not in the driver
To work with a paper not in the driver, you can use your paper as one of the profiles already in the driver,
however, you must identify whether your paper is transparent or translucent, glossy, matte, or HP
Banners with Tyvek®.
NOTE: For glossy paper, it is important to use a glossy paper type, as matte black ink does not print
well on glossy paper.
Transparent or translucent paper
If your paper is a transparent film (for example, a transparency) select paper type Film > Transparent/
Clear film.
If you paper is a translucent paper (for example, technical paper) select paper type Technical paper
> Natural Tracing Paper, Vellum, or Translucent bond.
Glossy paper
If your paper is glossy, identify whether it is a photo paper or a proofing paper. If you are not sure consider
it photo paper.
If your paper is a photo paper, use the Photo Paper category. For glossy or high-gloss paper select
paper type Photo Gloss Paper. For Semi-gloss, Satin, Pearl, or Luster finishes, select paper type Semi-
gloss/Satin Paper.
To increase gamut on photo paper select paper type HP Universal High-Gloss Photo Paper or HP
Universal Semi-Gloss Photo Paper, depending on the finish.
If you are printing on a glossy banner (for example, HP Instant-Dry Indoor Banner, Gloss) select paper
type Photo Gloss Paper.
Matte Paper
Your paper type selection for matte paper depends on the paper’s ink absorption capacity. To select a
paper category and type, first identify if your paper is general purpose or photographic. Then select the
recommended paper types.
General purpose paper
● For thin papers (< 90 g/m 2 ) uncoated papers (for example plain paper or bright white paper) select
paper type Bond and Coated > Plain Paper.
● For light coated papers (<110 g/m 2 ), select paper type Bond and Coated > Coated Paper.
