Paper specifications
HP LaserJet printers produce excellent print quality. This printer accepts a variety of print media,
such as cut-sheet paper (including recycled paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies, and
custom-size paper. Paper properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important
factors affecting printer performance and output quality.
The printer can use a variety of paper and other print media in accordance with the guidelines in
this user guide. Paper that does not meet these guidelines can cause the following problems:
poor print quality
increased jams
premature wear on the printer, requiring repair
Note
For best results, use only high-quality media, such as HP-brand paper and print media.
Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of other brands. Because they are not
HP products, HP cannot influence or control their quality.
It is possible for paper to meet all of the guidelines in this user guide and still not produce
satisfactory results. This might be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and
humidity levels, or other variables over which Hewlett-Packard has no control.
Before purchasing a large quantity of paper, make sure that it meets the requirements specified
in this user guide and in the
print media guide for the HP LaserJet family of printers.
(To order the guide, see
“Ordering information” on page 17
, or visit the supplies website at

.) Always test paper
before purchasing a large quantity.
CAUTION
Using paper outside HP specifications can cause problems for the printer, requiring repair. This
repair is not covered by the Hewlett-Packard warranty or service agreements.
