Paper types suitable for scanning
The scanner does not support the full range of paper types that may be used by the printer.
The following paper types are supported by the scanner.
● White paper to scan any matte original printed with inkjet technology. Choose this option to scan, for
instance, anything printed with this printer on any of these paper types: HP Universal Inkjet Bond Paper,
HP Coated Paper, HP Heavyweight Coated Paper, plain paper.
● Photo paper to scan glossy and satin originals. Inkjet, offset and traditional photo technologies are
supported by this option. Choose this option to scan, for instance, any photo or other image printed on
any of these paper types: HP Universal High Gloss Photo Paper, HP Premium Instant Dry Gloss/Satin
Photo Paper. However, for some specific photo originals, this option may not give completely accurate
results, in which case you could try White paper instead.
CAUTION: Photo and glossy papers may be scratched while passing through the scanner.
● Old/recycled paper to scan matte originals printed on recycled paper or very old originals, the
background of which is no longer white. Choose this option to scan, for instance, anything printed on
this printer using HP Recycled Bond Paper, or any old print on plain paper that has become yellowish
over the years.
● Translucent paper to scan semi-transparent tracing papers (> 65 g/m²), including HP Natural Tracing
Paper, HP Vellum and HP Translucent Bond.
● Blueprints for scanning blueprint originals with optimum results, in grayscale only. This option greatly
enhances the contrast of the resulting image.
For best results, you should select the correct paper type in the scan settings before scanning.
The following paper types are not supported by the scanner.
● Film
● Backlit material
● Cling material
● Translucent paper (< 65 g/m²)

prefer). Align the center of the sheet approximately with the center of the scanner. Use the standard
size markings to help you.
