You can make copies from originals loaded on the glass. You can also print and copy onto a variety of paper types, weights, sizes, and transparency films. It is important, however, that you choose the right paper and make sure that it is loaded correctly and not damaged.
You can copy or scan any original by placing it on the glass.
Many of the Reduce/Enlarge options, such as Fit to Page or Poster, will not work correctly if the glass and lid b acking are no t clean. For more informa tion, see clean the glass on page 49 and clean the lid backing on page 49.

Lift the lid and place the original face down on the glass in the front­right corner with the sides of the originals touching the right and front edges.
It is important to use the front-right corner when using the copy feature.

Close the lid.
Following is the basic procedure for loading paper. There are specific considerations for loading certain types of paper, transparency film, postcards, and envelopes. After you review this procedure, see tips for
loading other types of paper in the paper tray on page 12, load 4 x 6 inch photo paper on page 10, load envelopes on page 10, and load postcards or hagaki cards on page 11.
For best results, adjust the paper settings each time you change paper types or paper sizes. For more information, see set the paper type on page 13.
to load the paper tray
1
Remove the output tray, and slide the paper-width and paper-length guides to their outermost positions.
Diagrams stamped on the output tray provide tips for installing print cartridges. The location of the Support Web site for OfficeJet products is also provided.
2
Tap the stack on a flat surface to align the edges of the paper, and then check the paper for the following: – Make sure it is free of rips, dust, wrinkles, and curled or bent
edges.
– Make sure all the paper in the stack is the same size and type,
unless you are working with photo paper.

Be careful not to use too much or too little paper. Check that the stack of paper contains several sheets but is no higher than the top of the paper-length guide.
4
Slide the paper-width and paper-length guides in until they stop at the edges of the paper. Make sure that the paper stack lies flat in the paper tray and fits under the tab of the paper-length guide.

load envelopes

Use the print feature of your software to print to envelopes with your HP PSC. Your HP PSC provides two methods for working with envelopes. Do not use shiny or embossed envelopes, or envelopes that have clasps or windows.
If you are printing one envelope, slide the envelope into the envelope slot, which is located on the right side toward the back of the output tray. Insert the envelope with the flap up and on the left, as shown in the illustration. Slide the envelope until it stops.
If you are printing multiple envelopes, remove all paper from the paper tray, and then slide a stack of envelopes into the tray, with the envelope flaps up and to the left (print-side down), until they stop.
Adjust the paper-width guide against the envelopes (be careful not to bend the envelopes). Make sure the envelopes fit within the tray (do not overload it).
Consult the help files in your word processing software for details on how to format text for printing on envelopes.

load 4 x 6 inch photo paper

Following is the procedure for loading 4-by-6 inch photo paper into your HP PSC.
1
Remove all paper from the paper tray, and then slide a stack of photo paper into the tray until it stops.
Make sure the print side (glossy) faces down. If the photo paper you are using has perforated tabs, load the photo
paper so that the tabs are closest to you.

Postcards or hagaki cards (only works with printing)
• HP Premium Inkjet Paper: Locate the gray arrow on the nonprinting side of the paper, and then insert paper with the arrow side facing up.
• HP Premium or Premium Plus Photo Paper: Load the glossy (print) side down. Always load at least five sheets of regular paper in the paper tray first, and then place the photo paper on top of the regular paper.
• HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film: Insert the film so that the white transparency strip (with arrows and the HP logo) is on top and is going into the tray first.
• HP Inkjet T-shirt Transfer Iron-On: Flatten the transfer sheet completely before using it; do not load curled sheets. (To prevent curling, keep transfer sheets sealed in the original package until you are ready to use them.) Manually feed one sheet at a time, with the unprinted side facing down (the blue stripe faces up).
• HP Matte Greeting Cards, HP Glossy Greeting Cards, or HP Felt­Textured Greeting Cards: Insert a small stack of HP greeting-card paper, with the print-side down, into the paper tray until it stops.
• Always use letter-size or A4-size label sheets designed for use with HP inkjet products (like Avery Inkjet Labels), and make sure that the labels are not over two years old.
• Fan the stack of labels to make sure none of the pages are sticking together.
• Place a stack of label sheets on top of standard paper in the paper tray, print-side down. Do not insert labels one sheet at a time.
Insert a stack of postcards or hagaki cards with the print-side down into the paper tray until it stops. Line the postcards up on the right side of the paper tray, slide the width guide up against the left side of the cards, and then slide the paper-length guide in until it stops.

what is a photo card?

If your digital camera uses a photo card to store photos, you can insert the photo card in your HP PSC to print or save your photos.
You can print a proof sheet, which may be several pages long and shows thumbnail views of photos stored on the photo card, and print photos from the photo card, even if your HP PSC is not connected to a computer.
Your HP PSC can read CompactFlash I, II (includes IBM Microdrive up to 528 MB), Memory Stick, Secure Digital, and SmartMedia photo cards.
Your HP PSC features four different slots for photo card input, shown in the illustration below with the photo card that corresponds to each slot.

The IBM Microdrive photo card uses the same slot as the Compact Flash photo card, as shown on the next page.

hp psc 2200 series
You can only use one photo card in your HP PSC at a time.
By default, Windows XP will format a CompactFlash photo card of 64MB or more with FAT32 format. Digital cameras and other devices use the FAT (FAT16) format and cannot operate with a FAT32 formatted card. Either format your CompactFlash card in your camera or select FAT format to format your CompactFlash card in a Windows XP PC.
