3 Common Printing Tasks Note Selecting Media Many types of paper and other print media can be used with the printer, within certain specifications. Using media that does not meet the specifications outlined in this chapter can increase the incidence of media jams, contribute to repair and maintenance costs, and cause premature wear, print quality problems, and problems requiring service. This service might not be covered by the HP warranty or service agreements. Before purchasing media or specialized forms, test a small quantity in the printer. Make sure your media supplier obtains and understands the media and print media specifications in the HP LaserJet Printer Family Paper Specifications Guide. (For ordering information, see "Accessories, Options, and Related Products" in chapter 8.) It is possible that media could meet all of the specifications in this chapter and still not print satisfactorily. This might be caused by abnormal characteristics of the printing environment or other variables over which HP has no control, such as extremes in temperature and humidity. z Use only print media that meets the specifications outlined in this chapter. z Do not attempt to print unsupported sizes or weights of media or other unsupported media. For more information on supported media, see "Supported Media Weights and Sizes for Input Trays" on the next page. z Always handle transparencies and glossy media by their edges to avoid fingerprints in the image area.
