Printing Transparencies

For best results, use HP Premium Inkjet Rapid-Dry

Transparencies or transparencies specifically designed for
inkjet printers, for your overhead presentations.

1

In the HP print settings box, click the

Setup

tab, then select

HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film

,

HP Premium Inkjet

Rapid-Dry Transparency

, or

Other Transparency Films

as

the Paper Type. (See “Finding the HP print settings box” on
page 26.)

2

Make sure

Best

is selected as the Print Quality.

It isn’t absolutely necessary to use the

Best

Print Quality, but

it’ll give you the best results. If you’re in a hurry, use

Normal

Print Quality.

3

If you plan to make notes on your transparencies during
your presentation, click the

Features

tab, then select

Mirror

.

4

Put up to 25 sheets of transparencies in your printer with the
rough side down and the adhesive strip forward. (You can
peel off the adhesive strip after printing.)

5

Slide in the paper adjusters, just as you would for plain
paper.

6

Print the transparency.

7

Be patient.

Because the printer uses more ink, lays the colors down
more slowly, and allows for a longer drying time between
sheets, transparencies take awhile to print.

After printing, remember to:

•

Remove any remaining transparencies from the IN tray and
replace them with whatever paper you’ll be printing on next.

•

Reset the software for the paper you’ll be printing on next.
