Each supported paper type has its own characteristics. The printer changes the way it prints on each

different paper type. For example, some might need more ink and some might require a longer drying

time. The printer requires a description of the requirements of each paper type. This description is

called the “paper preset”.

The paper preset contains the ICC profile, which describes the color characteristics of the paper. It also

contains information about other characteristics and requirements of the paper that are not directly

related to color. Existing paper presets for your printer are installed in the printer's software.

Your printer contains paper presets for only the most commonly used paper types. If you buy a paper

type for which your printer has no preset, you cannot select that paper type in the front panel.

You can assign a preset for a new paper type in three ways:

Use an HP factory paper preset by selecting the closest category and type on the front panel or in

the HP Utility

NOTE:

Because colors might not be accurate, this method is not recommended for high-quality

prints.
