Get the Right Paper Your HP DeskJet printer is designed to work well on most common office paper types and with quality 25% cotton bond paper. Because your printer uses ink to produce an image, paper that accepts ink well produces the best results. Be sure to test a variety of paper types before buying large quantities. HP papers are available at most computer supply stores. See "Supplies and accessories" on page 70 for paper ordering information. Paper that Might Not Work • Highly textured stock, such as linen, might not print evenly; the ink could bleed into these papers. • Extremely smooth, shiny, or coated papers not specifically designed for inkjet printers could jam the printer and might actually repel ink. • Multi-part forms (such as duplicate or triplicate forms) could wrinkle in the printer or get stuck; the ink is also more likely to smear. In addition, only the top page is printed. • Paper in poor condition-with tears, dust, wrinkles, curled or bent edges, or paper that doesn't lie flat-could jam the printer. • Envelopes with thick or crooked edges; envelopes that are damaged, curled, wrinkled, or irregularly shaped; envelopes that are shiny or embossed; or envelopes with clasps or windows. 29

Get the Right Paper
Your HP DeskJet printer is designed to work well on most
common office paper types and with quality 25% cotton bond
paper. Because your printer uses ink to produce an image,
paper that accepts ink well produces the best results. Be sure to
test a variety of paper types before buying large quantities.
HP papers are available at most computer supply stores. See
“Supplies and accessories” on page 70 for paper ordering
information.
Paper that Might Not Work
•
Highly textured stock, such as linen, might not print evenly;
the ink could bleed into these papers.
•
Extremely smooth, shiny, or coated papers not specifically
designed for inkjet printers could jam the printer and might
actually repel ink.
•
Multi-part forms (such as duplicate or triplicate forms) could
wrinkle in the printer or get stuck; the ink is also more likely
to smear. In addition, only the top page is printed.
•
Paper in poor condition—with tears, dust, wrinkles, curled or
bent edges, or paper that doesn’t lie flat—could jam the
printer.
•
Envelopes with thick or crooked edges; envelopes that are
damaged, curled, wrinkled, or irregularly shaped; envelopes
that are shiny or embossed; or envelopes with clasps or
windows.
