3 Selecting and using media
105
Glossy media
Keep these considerations in mind when selecting or printing on glossy media:
Print quality can vary with the media used. For best results, use HP-brand glossy
media.
When using media that has only one glossy side, make sure to orient the media so
that the printer prints on the glossy side (see
“Orienting media” on page 83
).
Note
When printing on glossy media that is between 75 g/m
2
(20-lb bond) and 105 g/m
2
(28-lb
bond) in weight, make sure to set the
GLOSSY
type at the control panel when you load the
tray, and in the printer driver when you print your print job.
When printing on HP-brand glossy media that is between 106 g/m
2
(29-lb bond) and
163 g/m
2
(43-lb bond) in weight, make sure to set the
HP HEAVY GLOSSY
type at the control
panel when you load the tray, and in the printer driver when you print your print job.
When printing on non HP-brand glossy media that is between 106 g/m
2
(29-lb bond) and
163 g/m
2
(43-lb bond) in weight, make sure to set the
NON HP HEAVY GLOSSY
type at the
control panel when you load the tray, and in the printer driver when you print your print job.
Glossy media feeds best from trays 2 and 3.
