Handle transparencies using the edges. Oils from your fingers that
are deposited on the transparency can cause print quality
problems.

information about ordering transparencies, see “Ordering supplies
and accessories.”

To print on transparencies

Note

For best results, use HP Premium Plus Inkjet Transparency Film.
However, if you are using HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film instead
and are not attending to the print job, use the Best mode to print. This
mode requires a longer drying time, ensuring that the ink dries completely
before stacking the next page.

For more information about configuring settings in the printer driver, see
“Using the printer driver.”

Printing on heavy paper

When printing on heavy paper, such as coated paper and photo paper,
use the following guidelines:

!

Use the manual feed units when printing a single sheet of heavy
paper. Use tray 1 or tray 2 when printing multiple sheets of paper.

!

When printing on heavy paper (up to a 0.52 mm, or 0.02 inch,
thickness), use the rear manual feed. It provides a straight-through
paper path that allows the printer to handle heavy or thick paper.

CAUTION

Do not use paper that is heavier than the media specification
recommended for this printer. Doing so can cause misfeeds, jams,
reduced print quality, and excessive mechanical wear. See “Selecting
and loading print media.”
