HP CM8000 HP CM8060/CM8050 Color MFP with Edgeline Technology - Print Media Gu - Page 3

Optimizing your output The HP CM8060/CM8050 Color MFPs are designed to work across a broad range of plain papers used in the general office. For optimum performance we have provided a set of recommended papers on page 4. For best results, be sure to always select the correct printer settings for the chosen paper. This MFP with Edgeline Technology series accepts paper such as cut-sheet paper (including recycled), labels, glossy and custom-size paper. Weight, grain direction, smoothness and moisture content are important factors that affect MFP performance and print quality. For heavy and glossy paper, select paper type and size on the control panel for copy applications and in the printer driver for print applications. Using the wrong setting can result in unsatisfactory print quality. Always print by type for special print paper such as labels, matte brochure, heavy paper or glossy paper. Note: Be sure to use paper that falls within the paper specifications on this page to support optimal running of your MFP (see page 4 as a guide.) Using paper that is outside of these HP specifications could cause problems that require MFP repair. This repair is not covered by the HP warranty or service agreements. The paper types that are listed on page 4 of this guide meet these criteria: • They have been tested in these MFPs. • They are of good quality for their intended use. • They work well with the MFPs' settings. HP-branded paper is available at www.hp.com/go/paper or from your local office supplies retailer (see page 4 for recommended types.) These MFPs can also use non-HP-brand paper that falls within the specifications for supported paper (see pages 4 - 5 of this guide). Set the printer for the appropriate type and size of paper: • Load paper into one of the five paper uptake trays (see table below for paper supported in each tray.) • Select the paper type and size for that tray on the control panel. • Be sure to choose paper type in your driver when printing from your computer (instead of selecting a paper tray source). • The printer's "smart trays" will pull from the first tray containing the paper size and type you selected. • When you change the paper type in a tray, be sure to select the new paper type for that tray on the control panel. Using the correct paper input/output option Moving paper through the HP CM8060/CM8050 Color MFPs with Edgeline Technology at high speeds is one of the MFP's valuable features. Using the correct tray for each different type of paper will help ensure trouble-free printing. Here is a chart that will help you select the correct option for each paper.
