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.
Scanning Your Document

Scanning from the Document Assistant
Load your document in the document tray with the printed side
facing away from you. You can load up to 20 pages (see Step 2 for
page-loading restrictions with certain settings), or a single document
carrier. If necessary, slide the document guides on the tray to the left
or right to adjust them for the width of your document. (If you’re
using a document carrier, load it in the tray with the sealed edge
down.)
Now look at your computer screen. The OfficeJet Document Assis-
tant asks you what you’d like to do with the document.
