Copying
Using a Document Carrier to
Protect Your Original
Three document carriers are provided in the box with your HP
OfficeJet. (They are protective “sleeves” that have a transparent plas-
tic front and white paper backing.) Use these document carriers to
protect your fragile or damaged original documents from potential
harm while they’re fed through the HP OfficeJet’s document tray.
Place your document inside a document carrier before copying, fax-
ing, or scanning when your original document is:
• Smaller than standard letter size (8.5 x 11 inches). Non-standard
pages may not load properly and could jam inside the HP OfficeJet.
• Torn. Rough edges may cause a paper jam inside the HP OfficeJet.
• Precious or fragile. For example, a photograph or a legal
document.
• Very thin paper. Less than 20-lb weight paper may not load
properly and could jam inside the HP OfficeJet.
When placing the document carrier into the document tray, load it
with the sealed edge down and the transparent side facing away from
you.
Caution: To avoid damaging the HP OfficeJet, do not use the docu-
ment carrier to protect anything thicker than a photograph.
Copying from the Keypad
Because of the limited memory available in the HP OfficeJet, this
method is not recommended for copying large or complex docu-
ments. If more memory is needed, copy using the Document Assis-
tant, which uses your computer’s memory.
If your original document is a photograph, or if you want your copies
to be darker or lighter than your original, use the instructions in the
following section, “Controlling how your copies will look.”
