Load paper or transparency film, or load originals
Your unit is designed to copy onto a variety of transparency films and paper types,
weights, and sizes. It is important, however, that you choose the right paper and make
sure that it is not damaged.
Your unit lets you place originals directly on the glass.
Review recommended paper choices
Use paper that accepts ink well to produce the best results. We recommend that you test
a variety of paper types before buying large quantities. Find a paper type that produces
the results you want and that is easy to purchase. HP Premium Inkjet papers are
designed for the best results.
Paper that is too thin, has a slick texture, or stretches easily can feed improperly
through the units paper path. Paper that is heavily textured or does not accept ink well
can cause graphics or text to smear, bleed, or not be completely filled. For more
information, check the HP Web site:
www.hp.com/go/all-in-one

HP papers
For highest quality results, use the following:
HP Bright White Inkjet Paper delivers high-contrast colors and sharp text. It is
opaque enough for two-sided color usage, with no show-through, which makes it
ideal for newsletters, reports, and flyers.
HP Photo Paper, HP Premium Photo Paper, and HP Premium Plus Photo Paper are
high-quality, glossy- or matte-finish, photo-based inkjet papers. They look and feel
like photographs and can be mounted under glass or in an album. Photo papers dry
rapidly and resist fingerprints and smudges.
HP Iron-On T-Shirt Transfers can be used to transfer your designs or photos onto T-
shirts, sweatshirts, and fabric crafts.
HP Premium Inkjet Transparency or Rapid-Dry Transparency Film makes your
color presentations vivid and even more impressive. This film is easy to use and
handle and dries quickly without smudging.
HP Premium Heavyweight Inkjet Paper is matte-coated on both sides for two-sided
copying. It is the perfect choice for near-photographic reproductions and business
graphics for report covers, special presentations, brochures, mailers, and
calendars.

HP Premium Inkjet Paper is the ultimate coated paper for high-resolution usage. A
smooth, matte finish makes it ideal for your special documents.
HP Restickable Inkjet Stickers can be used to create repositionable kids stickers.
They are easy to stick and easy to remove. Available in square or round shapes, they
are made with HP Bright White Paper to allow vibrant colors and crisp text.
HP Professional Brochure Paper is matte- or glossy-coated on both sides for two-
sided use. It is the perfect choice for near-photographic reproductions and business
graphics for report covers, special presentations, brochures, mailers, and
calendars.

Review tips for loading specific types of paper
The following sections provide guidelines for loading certain types of paper and film. For

HP Premium Photo Paper: Load the glossy (print) side down. Always load at least
five sheets in the input tray. You can place the photo-paper sheets on top of plain
paper in the input tray.
HP Premium Plus Photo Paper: Always load at least five sheets in the input tray. You
can place the photo-paper sheets on top of plain paper in the input tray.

going into the tray first.

Cam.book Page 9 Friday, February 25, 2000 11:32 AM
HP Iron-On T-Shirt Transfers: Flatten the transfer sheet completely before using it;

original package until just before using.) Manually feed one sheet at a time, with the
unprinted side facing down (the blue stripe faces up).
HP Restickable Inkjet Stickers: Place the sheets in the input tray, print-side (sticker-
side) down.
Legal-size paper
Even though the paper-length adjuster is fully extended, make sure that the input tray
itself is pushed all the way in.

Load originals in the automatic document feeder (ADF)
When using the ADF, be aware of the following:
To prevent paper jams, use 16-24 lb. (60-90 gsm) plain paper or HP Premium Inkjet
paper only. Also, use only letter-, A4-, or legal-size originals.
To avoid a paper jam, do not load colored originals printed on a color laser printer,
photos or photo papers, transparency film, labels, envelopes, or slick-surfaced
papers, such as glossy papers.
You can load a maximum of 30 originals at a time when using letter- or A4-size
papers.

originals vertically.
When working with originals that were originally loaded in the ADF in vertical
orientation, you may notice during processing that part of the original temporarily
sticks out from under the lid and a short delay occurs. This is normal behavior.
Avoid paper jams
To avoid paper jams, remove papers from the output tray frequently. Output tray
capacity is affected by the type of paper and the amount of ink you are using. For more
information about output-tray capacity, see Technical information. For help with
clearing a paper jam, see Clear a paper jam.
