Description Sample Possible solutions
Output curl:
Printed paper has curled edges. The curled
edge can be along the short or long side of
the paper. Two types of curl are possible:
●
Positive curl: The paper curls toward
the printed side. The defect occurs in
dry environments or when printing
high coverage pages.
●
Negative curl: The paper curls away
from the printed side. The defect
occurs in high-humidity
environments or when printing low
coverage pages.
1. Reprint the document.
2. Positive curl: From the printer
control panel, select a heavier paper
type. The heavier paper type creates
a higher temperature for printing.
Negative curl: From the printer
control panel, select a lighter paper
type. The lighter paper type creates a
lower temperature for printing. Try
storing the paper in a dry
environment prior or use freshly
opened paper.
3. Print in duplex mode.
4. If the problem persists, go to
support.hp.com.
