When printing on heavy paper types, use the following guidelines:
● Use Tray 1 for paper that is heavier than 120 g/m 2 to 200 g/m 2 (32 lb bond up to 53 lb
bond).
● For optimum results when printing on heavy paper, use the printer control panel to set
the media type for the tray to HEAVY.
● In either the software application or the driver, select Heavy as the media type, or print
from a tray that is configured for heavy paper.
● Because this setting affects all print jobs, it is important to return the printer back to its
original settings once the job has printed. See
Configuring input trays .
CAUTION In general do not use paper that is heavier than the media specification recommended for
this printer. Doing so can cause misfeeds, paper jams, reduced print quality, and excessive
mechanical wear.
HP LaserJet Tough paper
When printing on HP LaserJet Tough paper, use the following guidelines:
● Handle HP LaserJet Tough paper using the edges. Oils from your fingers deposited on
HP LaserJet Tough paper can cause print quality problems.
● Use only HP LaserJet Tough paper with this printer. HP products are designed to work
together for optimum printing results.
● In either the software application or the driver, select TOUGH PAPER as the media
type, or print from a tray that is configured for HP LaserJet Tough paper.
Preprinted forms and letterhead
Observe the following guidelines for best results with preprinted forms and letterhead:
● Forms and letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant inks that will not melt, vaporize,
or release hazardous emissions when subjected to the printer’s fusing temperature of
approximately 190° C (374° F) for 0.1 second.
● Inks must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect any printer rollers.
