Media and tray
This chapter provides information on how to load print media into your machine.
Selecting print media
You can print on a variety of print media, such as plain paper, envelopes, labels, and
transparencies. Always use print media that meets the guidelines for use with your machine.
Guidelines for select the print media
Print media that does not meet the guidelines outlined in this user’s guide may cause the
following problems:
• Poor print quality
• Increased paper jams
• Premature wear on the machine.
Properties, such as weight, composition, grain, and moisture content, are important factors that
affect the machine’s performance and the output quality. When you choose print materials,
consider the following:
• The type, size, and weight of the print media for your machine are described in print media
specifications (see "Print media specifications" on page 170).
• Desired outcome: The print media you choose should be appropriate for your project.
• Brightness: Some print media are whiter than others and produce sharper, more vibrant
images.
Surface smoothness: The smoothness of the print media affects how crisp the printing looks on
the paper.
• Some print media may meet all of the guidelines in this user’s guide and still not
produce satisfactory results. This may be the result of the sheets characteristics,
improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels, or other variables
over which cannot be controlled.
• Before purchasing large quantities of print media, ensure that it meets the
requirements specified in this user’s guide.
• Using print media that does not meet these specifications may cause problems or
require repairs. Such repairs are not covered by HP’s warranty or service agreements.
• The amount of paper put into the tray may differ according to media type used (see
"Print media specifications" on page 170).
• Make sure not to use the inkjet photo paper with this machine. It could cause damage
to the machine.
• Using flammable print media can cause a fire.
• Use designated print media (see "Print media specifications" on page 170).
background
Media and tray | 37
The use of flammable media or foreign materials left in the printer may lead to
overheating of the unit and, in rare cases may cause a fire.
The amount of paper put into the tray may differ according to media type used (see "Print media
specifications" on page 170).
Tray overview
To change the size, you need to adjust the paper guides.
1. Paper width guide

(: Supported)
Envelope
Printing successfully on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes.
To print an envelope, place it as shown in the following figure.
• When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors:
- Weight: should not exceed 90 g/m
2
otherwise; jams may occur.
- Construction: should lie flat with less than 6 mm curl and should not contain air.
- Condition: should not be wrinkled, nicked, nor damaged.
- Temperature: should resist the heat and pressure of the machine during operation.
• Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well-creased folds.
• Do not use stamped envelopes.
• Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining, self-adhesive seals, or other
synthetic materials.
• Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
• Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope extends all the way to the corner of the
envelope.

background
Media and tray | 41
Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must
use adhesives compatible with the machine’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second about 170°C
(338 °F). The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even
damage the fuser.
• For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm from the edges of the
envelope.
• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.
Labels
To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels designed for use in laser printers.
• When selecting labels, consider the following factors:
- Adhesives: Should be stable at your machine’s fusing temperature about 170°C (338°F).
- Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off
sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.
- Curl: Must lie flat with no more than 13 mm of curl in any direction.
- Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation.
Make sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels. Exposed areas can cause
labels to peel off during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause
damage to machine components.
• Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The adhesive backing is
designed for only a single pass through the machine.
• Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or
otherwise damaged.
Card stock/ Custom-sized paper
• In the software application, set the margins to at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the
edges of the material.
background
Media and tray | 42
Preprinted paper
When loading preprinted paper, the printed side should be facing up with an uncurled edge at the
front. If you experience problems with paper feeding, turn the paper around. Note that print
quality is not guaranteed.
• Must be printed with heat-resistant ink that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous
emissions when subjected to the machine’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second (about 170°C
(338°F)).
• Preprinted paper ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect machine rollers.
• Before you load preprinted paper, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing
process, wet ink can come off preprinted paper, reducing print quality.
Setting the paper size and type
After loading paper in the paper tray, set the paper size and type using the control panel buttons.
To change the paper setting set in the machine, set the paper type from the Printing Preferences
window > Paper tab > Paper Type (see "Opening printing preferences" on page 67).
It may be necessary to press OK to navigate to lower-level menus for some models.
1 Select (Menu) button on the control panel.
2 Press System Setup > Paper Setup > Paper Size or Paper Type.
3 Select the tray and the option you want.
4 Press OK to save the selection.
5 Press (Cancel) to return to ready mode.

Using the output support
The surface of the output tray may become hot if you print a large number of pages at
once. Make sure that you do not touch the surface, and do not allow children near it.
The printed pages stack on the output support, and the output support will help the printed pages
to align. The printer sends output to the output tray by default.
Illustrations on this user’s guide may differ from your machine depending on its options
or models. Check your machine type (see "Front view" on page 18).
Preparing originals
• Do not load paper smaller than 76 x 149 mm (3x 5.85 inches) or larger than 216 x 356 mm (8.5
x 14 inches).
Do not attempt to load the following s of paper, in order to prevent paper jam, low print quality
and machine damage.
- Carbon-paper or carbon-backed paper
- Coated paper
- Onion skin or thin paper
- Wrinkled or creased paper
- Curled or rolled paper
- Torn paper
• Remove all staples and paper clips before loading.
• Make sure any glue, ink, or correction fluid on the paper is completely dry before loading.
• Do not load originals that include different sizes or weights of paper.

Available maintenance parts
You need to replace the maintenance parts at specific intervals to keep the machine in the best
condition and avoid print quality and paper feeding problems resulting from the worn-out parts.
Maintenance parts are mostly rollers, belts and pads. However, the replacement period and parts
may differ depending on the model. Replacing maintenance parts can be performed only by an
authorized service provider, dealer, or the retailer where you bought the machine. To purchase
maintenance parts, contact the retailer where you bought the machine. The replacement period
for the maintenance parts is informed by the "Printer Status" program. Or on the UI (User
Interface) if your machine supports a display screen. The replacement period varies based on the
operating system used, computing performance, application software, connecting method, paper
type, paper size, and job complexity.
background
Storing the toner cartridge | 126
Storing the toner cartridge
Toner cartridges contain components that are sensitive to light, temperature and humidity. HP
suggests users follow these recommendations to ensure optimal performance, highest quality,
and longest life from your new HP toner cartridge.
Store this cartridge in the same environment in which the printer will be used. This should be in
controlled temperature and humidity conditions. The toner cartridge should remain in its original
and unopened package until installation – if original packaging is not available, cover the top
opening of the cartridge with paper and store in a dark cabinet.
Opening the cartridge package prior to use dramatically shortens its useful shelf and operating
life. Do not store on the floor. If the toner cartridge is removed from the printer, follow the
instructions below to store the toner cartridge properly.
• Store the cartridge inside the protective bag from the original package.
• Store lying flat (not standing on end) with the same side facing up as if it were installed in the
machine.
• Do not store consumables in any of the following conditions:
- Temperature greater than 40°C (104°F).
- Humidity range less than 20% or greater than 80%.
- An environment with extreme changes in humidity or temperature.
- Direct sunlight or room light.
-Dusty places.
- A car for a long period of time.
- An environment where corrosive gases are present.
- An environment with salty air.
Handling instructions
• Do not touch the surface of the photo conductive drum in the cartridge.
• Do not expose the cartridge to unnecessary vibrations or shock.
• Never manually rotate the drum, especially in the reverse direction; this can cause internal
damage and toner spillage.
Toner cartridge usage
HP does not recommend or approve the use of non-HP brand toner cartridges in your printer
including generic, store brand, refilled, or remanufactured toner cartridges.
HP’s printer warranty does not cover damage to the machine caused by the use of a
refilled, remanufactured, or non-HP brand toner cartridges.
background
Storing the toner cartridge | 127
Estimated cartridge life
Estimated cartridge life (the life of the toner cartridge yield) depends on the amount of toner that
print jobs require. The actual print yield may vary depending on the print density of the pages you
print on, operating environment, percentage of image area, printing interval, media type and/or
media size. For example, if you print a lot of graphics, the consumption of the toner is higher and
you may need to change the cartridge more often.
background
Redistributing toner | 128
Redistributing toner
You can temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge.
In some cases, white streaks or light printing will still occur even after you have redistributed the
toner.
Illustrations in this user’s guide may differ from your machine depending on the model
and options installed. Check your machine type (see "Front view" on page 18).
• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few
minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if necessary.
• Do not touch the green area of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to
avoid touching this area.
• If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold
water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.
• When opening a scanner hold the document feeder and scanner together.
background
Replacing the toner cartridge | 129
Replacing the toner cartridge
When the toner cartridge needs to be replaced, check the type of the toner cartridge for your
machine (see "Available supplies" on page 124).

Cleaning the machine | 133
Cleaning the machine
If printing quality problems occur or if you use your machine in a dusty environment, you need to
clean your machine regularly to keep it in the best printing condition and use your machine
longer.
• Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials containing large amounts
of alcohol, solvents, or other strong substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.
If your machine or the surrounding area is contaminated with toner, we recommend you
use a cloth or tissue dampened with water to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner
blows in the air and might be harmful to you.
Cleaning the outside or the display screen
Clean the machine cabinet or the display screen with a soft, lint-free cloth. Dampen the cloth
slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water drip onto or into the machine.
Cleaning the inside
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the machine.
This buildup can cause print quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the
inside of the machine clears and reduces these problems.
• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few
minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if necessary.
• Do not touch the green area of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to
avoid touching this area.
• Use a dry lint free cloth when cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to
damage the transfer roller or any other inside parts. Do not use solvents such as
benzene or thinner. Printing quality problems can occur and cause damage to the
machine.
• Use a dry lint-free cloth to clean the machine.
• Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to cool down. If
your machine has a power switch, turn the power switch off before cleaning the
machine.

Printing quality problems
If the inside of the machine is dirty or paper has been loaded improperly, there might be a
reduction in print quality. See the table below to clear the problem.
Condition Suggested solutions
Light or faded
print
• If a vertical white streak or faded area appears on the page, the toner
supply is low. Install a new toner cartridge (see "Replacing the toner
cartridge" on page 129).
• If a vertical white streak or faded area still appears on the page even
though the machine has enough toner supply, open and close the front
door 3 ~ 4 times (see "Machine overview" on page 18).
• The paper may not meet paper specifications; for example, the paper
may be too moist or rough.
• If the entire page is light, the print resolution setting is too low or the
toner save mode is on. Adjust the print resolution and turn the toner
save mode off. See the help screen of the printer driver.
• A combination of faded or smeared defects may indicate that the toner
cartridge needs cleaning. Clean the inside of your machine (see
"Cleaning the machine" on page 133).
• The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the
inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 133). If
these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.
The top half of
the paper is
printed lighter
than the rest of
the paper
The toner might not adhere properly to this type of paper.
• Change the printer option and try again. Go to Printing Preferences,
click the Paper tab, and set the paper type to Recycled (see "Opening
printing preferences" on page 67).
Toner specks • The paper may not meet specifications; for example, the paper may be
too moist or rough.
• The transfer roller may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine (see
"Cleaning the machine" on page 133).
The paper path may need cleaning. Contact a service representative (see
"Cleaning the machine" on page 133).
background
Solving other problems | 157
Dropouts
If faded areas, generally rounded, occur randomly on the page:
• A single sheet of paper may be defective. Try reprinting the job.
• The moisture content of the paper is uneven or the paper has moist
spots on its surface. Try a different brand of paper.
The paper lot is bad. The manufacturing processes can cause some areas
to reject toner. Try a different kind or brand of paper.
• Change the printer option and try again. Go to Printing Preferences,
click the Paper tab, and set type to Heavy 90-120 g (see "Opening
printing preferences" on page 67).
If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.
White Spots
If white spots appear on the page:
• The paper is too rough and a lot of dirt from paper falls to the inner
components within the machine, so the transfer roller may be dirty.
Clean the inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page
133).
• The paper path may need cleaning. Clean the inside of your machine
(see "Cleaning the machine" on page 133).
If these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.
Vertical lines
If black vertical streaks appear on the page:
• The surface (drum part) of the toner cartridge inside the machine has
probably been scratched. Remove the toner cartridge and install a new
one (see "Replacing the toner cartridge" on page 129).
If white vertical streaks appear on the page:
• The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the
inside of your machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page 133). If
these steps do not correct the problem, contact a service representative.
Black or color
background
If the amount of background shading becomes unacceptable:
• Change to a lighter weight paper.
Check the environmental conditions: very dry conditions or a high level
of humidity (higher than 80% RH) can increase the amount of
background shading.
• Remove the toner cartridge and install a new one (see "Replacing the
toner cartridge" on page 129).
• Thoroughly redistribute the toner (see "Redistributing toner" on page
128).
Toner smear • Clean the inside of the machine (see "Cleaning the machine" on page
133).
• Check the paper type and quality.
• Remove the toner cartridge and install a new one (see "Replacing the
toner cartridge" on page 129).

Vertical
repetitive
defects
If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of the page at even
intervals:
The toner cartridge may be damaged. If you still have the same problem,
remove the toner cartridge and, install a new one (see "Replacing the
toner cartridge" on page 129).
Parts of the machine may have toner on them. If the defects occur on the
back of the page, the problem will likely correct itself after a few more
pages.
The fusing assembly may be damaged. Contact a service representative.
Background
scatter
Background scatter results from bits of toner randomly distributed on the
printed page.
The paper may be too damp. Try printing with a different batch of paper.
Do not open packages of paper until necessary so that the paper does
not absorb too much moisture.
• If background scatter covers the entire surface area of a printed page,
adjust the print resolution through your software application or in
Printing Preferences (see "Opening printing preferences" on page 67).
Ensure the correct paper type is selected. For example: If Thicker Paper
is selected, but Plain Paper actually used, an overcharging can occur
causing this copy quality problem.
• If you are using a new toner cartridge, redistribute the toner first (see
"Redistributing toner" on page 128).
Toner particles
are around bold
characters or
pictures
The toner might not adhere properly to this type of paper.
• Change the printer option and try again. Go to Printing Preferences,

Use the troubleshooting information to help resolve issues.
To determine whether Wi-Fi Direct printing is enabled on your printer, print a
configuration page from the printer control panel.
Wireless connectivity checklist
• Verify that the printer and the wireless router are turned on and have power. Also make sure
that the wireless radio in the printer is turned on.
• Verify that the service set identifier (SSID) is correct. Print a configuration page to determine
the SSID (see "Printing a network configuration report" on page 48).
• With secured networks, verify that the security information is correct. If the security
information is incorrect, run the wireless setup again.
• If the wireless network is working correctly, try accessing other computers on the wireless
network. If the network has Internet access, try connecting to the Internet over a wireless
connection.
• Verify that the encryption method (AES or TKIP) is the same for the printer as it is for the
wireless access point (on networks using WPA security).
• Verify that the printer is within the range of the wireless network. For most networks, the
printer must be within 30 m (100 ft) of the wireless access point (wireless router).
Verify that obstacles do not block the wireless signal. Remove any large metal objects between
the access point and the printer. Make sure poles, walls, or support columns containing metal
or concrete do not separate the printer and wireless access point.
• Verify that the printer is located away from electronic devices that might interfere with the
wireless signal. Many devices can interfere with the wireless signal including motors, cordless

in the original Mac (1984) and is now deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP networking.
BIT Depth
A computer graphics term describing the number of bits used to represent the color of a single pixel in a
bitmapped image. Higher color depth gives a broader range of distinct colors. As the number of bits increases,
the number of possible colors becomes impractically large for a color map. 1-bit color is commonly called as
monochrome or black and white.
BMP

commonly as a simple graphics file format on that platform.
background
Glossary | 175
BOOTP
Bootstrap Protocol. A network protocol used by a network client to obtain its IP address automatically. This is
usually done in the bootstrap process of computers or operating systems running on them. The BOOTP servers
assign the IP address from a pool of addresses to each client. BOOTP enables 'diskless workstation' computers
to obtain an IP address prior to loading any advanced operating system.
CCD
Charge Coupled Device (CCD) is a hardware which enables the scan job. CCD Locking mechanism is also used
to hold the CCD module to prevent any damage when you move the machine.

Collation is a process of printing a multiple-copy job in sets. When collation is selected, the device prints an
entire set before printing additional copies.
Control Panel
A control panel is a flat, typically vertical, area where control or monitoring instruments are displayed. They are
typically found in front of the machine.
Coverage
It is the printing term used for a toner usage measurement on printing. For example, 5% coverage means that
an A4 sided paper has about 5% image or text on it. So, if the paper or original has complicated images or lots
of text on it, the coverage will be higher and at the same time, a toner usage will be as much as the coverage.
CSV
Comma Separated Values (CSV). A type of file format, CSV is used to exchange data between disparate
applications. The file format, as it is used in Microsoft Excel, has become a de facto standard throughout the
industry, even among non-Microsoft platforms.
DADF
A Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF) is a scanning unit that will automatically feed and turn over an
original sheet of paper so that the machine can scan on both sides of the paper.
Default
The value or setting that is in effect when taking a printer out of its box state, reset, or initialized.
DHCP
A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a client-server networking protocol. A DHCP server provides
configuration parameters specific to the DHCP client host requesting, generally, information required by the
client host to participate on an IP network. DHCP also provides a mechanism for allocation of IP addresses to
client hosts.

Dot Matrix Printer
A dot matrix printer refers to a type of computer printer with a print head that runs back and forth on the page
and prints by impact, striking an ink-soaked cloth ribbon against the paper, much like a typewriter.
DPI
Dots Per Inch (DPI) is a measurement of resolution that is used for scanning and printing. Generally, higher DPI
results in a higher resolution, more visible detail in the image, and a larger file size.
DRPD
Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection. Distinctive Ring is a telephone company service which enables a user to use
a single telephone line to answer several different telephone numbers.
Duplex
A mechanism that will turn over a sheet of paper so that the machine can print (or scan) on both sides of the
paper. A printer equipped with a Duplex Unit can print on both sides of paper during one print cycle.
Duty Cycle
Duty cycle is the page quantity which does not affect printer performance for a month. Generally the printer
has the lifespan limitation such as pages per year. The lifespan means the average capacity of print-outs,
usually within the warranty period. For example, if the duty cycle is 48,000 pages per month assuming 20
working days, a printer limits 2,400 pages a day.
ECM
Error Correction Mode (ECM) is an optional transmission mode built into Class 1 fax machines or fax modems.
It automatically detects and corrects errors in the fax transmission process that are sometimes caused by
telephone line noise.
Emulation
Emulation is a technique of one machine obtaining the same results as another.
An emulator duplicates the functions of one system with a different system, so that the second system behaves
like the first system. Emulation focuses on exact reproduction of external behavior, which is in contrast to

the TCP/IP protocol (such as the Internet or an intranet).
Fuser Unit
The part of a laser printer that fuses the toner onto the print media. It consists of a heat roller and a pressure
roller. After toner is transferred onto the paper, the fuser unit applies heat and pressure to ensure that the
toner stays on the paper permanently, which is why paper is warm when it comes out of a laser printer.
Gateway
A connection between computer networks, or between a computer network and a telephone line. It is very
popular, as it is a computer or a network that allows access to another computer or network.
Grayscale
A shades of gray that represent light and dark portions of an image when color images are converted to

network address and which part is the host address.
TCP/IP
The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP); the set of communications protocols
that implement the protocol stack on which the Internet and most commercial networks run.
TCR
Transmission Confirmation Report (TCR) provides details of each transmission such as job status, transmission
result and number of pages sent. This report can be set to print after each job or only after failed transmissions.
TIFF
Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) is a variable-resolution bitmapped image format. TIFF describes image data
that typically come from scanners. TIFF images make use of tags, keywords defining the characteristics of the
image that is included in the file. This flexible and platform-independent format can be used for pictures that
have been made by various image processing applications.
Toner Cartridge
A kind of bottle or container used in a machine like a printer which contains toner. Toner is a powder used in
laser printers and photocopiers, which forms the text and images on the printed paper. Toner can be fused by
by a combination of heat/pressure from the fuser, causing it to bind to the fibers in the paper.

USB port to multiple peripherals.
Watermark
A watermark is a recognizable image or pattern in paper that appears lighter when viewed by transmitted light.
Watermarks were first introduced in Bologna, Italy in 1282; they have been used by papermakers to identify
their product, and also on postage stamps, currency, and other government documents to discourage
counterfeiting.
WEP
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a security protocol specified in IEEE 802.11 to provide the same level of
security as that of a wired LAN. WEP provides security by encrypting data over radio so that it is protected as
it is transmitted from one end point to another.
WIA
Windows Imaging Architecture (WIA) is an imaging architecture that is originally introduced in Windows Me
and Windows XP. A scan can be initiated from within these operating systems by using a WIA-compliant
scanner.
WPA
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a class of systems to secure wireless (Wi-Fi) computer networks, which was
created to improve upon the security features of WEP.
WPA-PSK
WPA-PSK (WPA Pre-Shared Key) is special mode of WPA for small business or home users. A shared key, or
password, is configured in the wireless access point (WAP) and any wireless laptop or desktop devices.
WPA-PSK generates a unique key for each session between a wireless client and the associated WAP for more
advanced security.
WPS
The Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a standard for establishing a wireless home network. If your wireless access
point supports WPS, you can configure the wireless network connection easily without a computer.
XPS
XML Paper Specification (XPS) is a specification for a Page Description Language (PDL) and a new document
format, which has benefits for portable document and electronic document, developed by Microsoft. It is an
