Media requirements
Selecting print media
You can use many types of paper and other print media with this printer. This section provides
guidelines and specifications for selecting and using different print media.
Before purchasing any media or specialized forms in quantity, verify that your paper supplier
obtains and understands the print media requirements specified in the HP LaserJet Family Print
Media Guide. The guide is available through Hewlett-Packard Customer Support (HPCS). See
page 47 for ordering information.
It is possible that media could meet all of the guidelines in this chapter and still not print
satisfactorily. This may be a result of abnormal characteristics of the printing environment or of
other variables over which Hewlett-Packard has no control (for example, extremes in temperature
and humidity).
Hewlett-Packard recommends testing any media before buying it in large quantities.
CAUTION Using media that does not conform to the specifications listed here and in the HP LaserJet Family
Print Media Guide can cause problems that require service. This service is not covered by the
Hewlett-Packard warranty or service agreements.
Media specifications
For optimum results, use conventional 75 g/m
2
(20 lb) xerographic paper. Verify that the paper is of
good quality and is free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, curls, or bent
edges. Avoid fanning the print media before loading it into the paper trays.
