Printer media considerations HP LaserJet printers produce excellent print quality. The printer accepts a variety of media, such as cutsheet paper (including recycled paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies, vellum, and custom-size paper. Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors affecting printer performance and output quality. The printer can use a variety of paper and other print media in accordance with the guidelines in this user guide. Media that does not meet these guidelines might cause the following problems: ● Poor print quality ● Increased media jams ● Premature wear on the printer, requiring repair For best results, use only HP brand paper and print media. Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of other brands. Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence or control their quality. It is possible for media to meet all of the guidelines in this user guide and still not produce satisfactory results. This might be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels, or other variables over which HP has no control. Before purchasing a large quantity of media, make sure that it meets the requirements specified in this user guide and in the HP LaserJet printer family print media guide. The guidelines can be downloaded from http://www.hp.com/support/ljpaperguide/ or see Ordering supplies on page 92 for more information about ordering the guidelines.
