Printing Transparencies

For best results, use HP Premium Inkjet Rapid-Dry

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

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.)

Make sure

Best

is selected as the Print Quality.

It isn’t absolutely necessary to use the

Best

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

Normal

Print Quality.

3

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.
