HP P2055d HP LaserJet Printer Family - Print Media Specification Guide - Page 7

1 Overview Note Note HP LaserJet printers quickly and quietly produce documents of excellent print quality. A variety of print media, including paper, envelopes, labels, and overhead transparencies, can be used in your HP LaserJet printer. However, to ensure consistent performance and long-term reliability, the print media must be designed for use with laser printers. Many choices of high-quality print media are available to laser printer users. This manual provides guidelines for selecting and using print media to help you get the best performance from your HP LaserJet printer. It also contains information to help troubleshoot HP LaserJet printer problems that might be caused by poor-quality print media. You might encounter some terms that are unfamiliar to you. For more information about these terms, see the glossary in Appendix C on page 39. The standards discussed in this manual do not apply to paper that is being scanned, copied, or faxed through the scan path on an HP LaserJet MFP (multifunction peripheral). Check the individual product manuals for that information. This document does not support HP LaserJet 2686A, HP LaserJet Plus, HP LaserJet 500, or HP LaserJet 2000 printers. See the user guide for each printer for information about print-media specifications. When HP LaserJet printers are discussed in this guide, the information pertains to HP Monochrome LaserJet printers, HP color LaserJet printers, and HP LaserJet MFPs unless otherwise noted. For specific information about what media your printer or MFP supports, see the documentation that came with your product. Chapter 1 Overview 1
