Selecting print media The type of media you select affects HP LaserJet 3100 product performance and print quality. Selecting media types If available in your area, HP recommends that you use HP LaserJet or HP Multipurpose paper (since it has been designed specifically for use with your HP LaserJet 3100 product) or paper meeting HP's specifications. When it meets HP's requirements, you can also use paper with up to 100% recycled fiber content. To order HP paper or the HP LaserJet Printer Family Paper Specification Guide, see "Ordering parts" in chapter 9. Some papers do not work as well as others. Make sure whatever paper stock you choose meets the specifications detailed in the paper specification guide. Highly textured stock such as linen might not print evenly. Very slick papers might jam or repel toner. Multipart forms could wrinkle or get jammed in the HP LaserJet 3100 product. And paper in poor condition, such as if it contained tears, wrinkles, or bent edges, could jam. Avoid envelopes with a very slick finish, ones that have self-stick adhesives, or those with clasps or windows. Also, avoid envelopes with thick, irregular, or curled edges or areas that are wrinkled, torn, or otherwise damaged. For envelopes, do use a sturdy envelope of approximately 16 to 27 lb (7.25 to 12.25 kg) weight. Use tightly constructed envelopes and make sure the folds are sharply creased. 96 4 Printing EN
