Step one: Use paper that meets HP specifications

Some print-quality problems arise from using paper that does not meet HP specifications.

Always use a paper type and weight that this printer supports.

Use paper that is of good quality and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles,

voids, staples, and curled or bent edges.

Use paper that has not been previously printed on.
