Colored paper
●
Colored paper should be of the same high quality as white xerographic paper.
●
Pigments used must be able to withstand the printer’s fusing temperature of 190° C
(374° F) for 0.1 second without deterioration.
●
Do not use paper with a colored coating that was added after the paper was produced.
●
The printer creates colors by printing patterns of dots, overlaying and varying their
spacing to produce various colors. Varying the shade or color of the paper will affect the
shades of the printed colors.
Printing images
To obtain the best print quality when printing images, use HP High Gloss Laser Paper
(Q2420A) with the HP High Gloss (Images) media type setting.
●
In either the software application or the printer driver, select HIGH GLOSS IMAGES as
the media type, or print from a tray that is configured for glossy paper.
●
You can also configure the printer using settings on the printer control panel. See
for more information.
Envelopes
Note
Envelopes can be printed only from Tray 1. Set the tray’s media size to the specific envelope
size. See
Printing envelopes from Tray 1
.
Adhering to the following guidelines will help ensure proper printing on envelopes and help
prevent printer jams:
●
Do not load more than 20 envelopes into Tray 1.
●
The weight rating of envelopes should not exceed 105 g/m
2
(28 lb bond).
●
Envelopes should be flat.
●
Do not use envelopes with windows or clasps.
●
Envelopes must not be wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.
●
Envelopes with peel-off adhesive strips must use adhesives that can withstand the heat
and pressures of the printer’s fusing process.
●
Envelopes should be loaded face-down and with the postage end feeding into the printer
first.
Labels
Note
For printing labels, set the tray’s media type to LABELS in the printer control panel. See
. When printing labels, use the following guidelines:
●
Verify that the labels’ adhesive material can tolerate temperatures of 190° C (374° F) for
0.1 second.
●
Verify that there is no exposed adhesive material between the labels. Exposed areas
can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause printer jams. Exposed
adhesive can also cause damage to printer components.
