Selecting print media
In this section you will find information on:
lSelecting media to print
lSelecting items for faxing, copying, or scanning
Selecting media to print
If available in your area, HP recommends that you use HP LaserJet
or HP Multipurpose paper (because it has been designed specifically
for use with your product), use or paper that meets HP’s
specifications. You can use paper with up to 100% recycled fiber
content if it meets HP’s specifications. To order HP paper or the Print Media Guide for HP LaserJet printers, see “Ordering parts” on
page 257.
Highly textured stock, such as linen, might not print evenly. Very
glossy papers might jam or repel toner. Multipart forms can wrinkle or
get jammed in the product. And paper in poor condition, such as
paper with tears, wrinkles, or bent edges, can jam.
Avoid envelopes that have a very slick finish, ones that have self-stick
adhesives, or those with clasps or windows. Also avoid envelopes
with thick, irregular, or curled edges, or areas that are wrinkled, torn,
or otherwise damaged.
Use a sturdy envelope of approximately 16 to 27 pounds (7.25 to
12.25 kg) weight. Use tightly constructed envelopes, and make sure
the folds are sharply creased.
ENSelecting print media 23
Print media sizes
The paper input tray can hold up to 125 sh eets of 20 lb ( 75 g/m2) print
media. The single-sheet input slot is designed to hold one sheet. Both

Selecting items for faxing, copying, or
scanning
The product can scan items of various sizes, from 2 by 3.5 inches (51
by 89 mm) (the size of a business card) to 8.5 by 14 inches (215 by
356 mm), and can fax and copy items ranging from 2 by 3.5 inches
(51 by 89 mm) to 8.5 by 35 inches (215 by 889 mm).
The product accepts bond paper, onionskin paper, newspaper pages,
magazine pages, recycled paper, transparencies, and photographs
and other items in carrier sheets. Coarse papers scan more easily
than smooth items. Slick papers can go through the product, although
they may be more difficult to feed through. For best results, feed slick
sheets one at a time and have the special media lever set correctly.
Perform the following actions to minimize the possibility of jams:
lRemove self-adhesive notes.
lRemove staples and paper clips.
lStraighten any curls or wrinkles in documents before putting them
into the document feeder tray.
lDo not insert any document with glue, correction fluid, or wet ink
on it.
lDo not insert gum-backed paper or labels.
lPlace documents with tears, perforations, or punch holes in a
carrier sheet, which you can buy or make. (See “To load special
items” on page 27.)
lAvoid multiple-copy forms.

2Place up to 30 pages top first, face down, into the document

26 Chapter 2 - Getting to Know the ProductEN
To load special items
When loading items to be faxed, copied, or scanned, you need to
protect small, fragile, lightweight (less than 12 lb. or 46 g/m
2
), or
irregularly sized items such as receipts, newspaper clippings,
photographs, and old or worn documents.
1Do one of the following:
• Place the item in a carrier sheet. You can buy a carrier sheet,
or you can make one by taping a transparency and piece of
paper together along one of the short sides. Insert the item to
be faxed, copied, or scanned into the carrier, and insert the
carrier into the document feeder tray, taped edge first.
• Using clear tape, tape the leading and trailing edges of the
item to a sheet of letter- or A4-size paper. If the item is not
square or rectangular, tape all edges of the item to the paper.
• If you have use of a standard size copier, copy the item first
and then send the copy through the scanner.
2Adjust the guides in the document feeder tray to fit the size of the
item you are loading.
3Locate the special media lever (see “Identifying hardware parts”
on page 21) on the top edge of the control panel and move it to
the right.
CAUTIONDo not move the lever after the product has begun sending the page.
ENLoading print media 27
4Load only one sheet at a time, top first, face down, into the
document feeder tray.
Note If you are loading a business card, load it long edge first.
5Move the special media lever back to the left after special items
have been fed. A stack of regular pages sent with the lever to the
right can go through in multiples, and can cause jams.
Loading media to be printed
You can load media to be printed in paper input tray or in the singlesheet input slot. See the instructions in this section for more
information.
Loading the paper input tray
You can load up to 125 sheets of 20 lb (75 g /m2) media into the paper
input tray, or you can feed one sheet at a time into the single-sheet
input slot.
NoteInsert all media vertically (portrait orientation) into the paper input tray
or single-sheet input slot. If you want to print horizontally (landscape
orientation), make that selection through your software. The product
cannot print on paper smaller than 3 by 5 inches (76.2 by 127 mm).
The product prints, copies, and prints received faxes using media
from the paper input tray (or the single-sheet input slot).
To load the paper input tray
1Adjust the guides on the paper input tray to fit the size of media
you are loading.
28 Chapter 2 - Getting to Know the ProductEN
2Insert up to 125 sheets of paper into the paper input tray. Be
careful not to overfill the tray.
NoteWhen adding paper to an existing stack in the paper input tray, always
remove the existing paper and realign it with the new paper before
loading to reduce multiple feeds or jams.
NoteIf you have loaded special media, make sure to choose the lower paper
output path. See “To select the output path” on page 31.
3Readjust the guides to center the stack.
Using the single-sheet input slot
Using the single-sheet input slot, you can print one sheet of media at
a time without using the paper input tray. The product takes media
loaded in the single-sheet input slot before it takes media from the
paper input tray.
NoteThe single-sheet input slot is helpful when the first page of your job is
different from the rest. For example, you might want the first page of
your print job on letterhead, or you might want to print an envelope fir st.
To print using the single-sheet input slot
1Adjust the guides on the single-sheet input slot to the
approximate size of the sheet you are using.
ENLoading print media 29
2Insert one sheet of media into the single-sheet input slot. If
loading special media or letterhead, insert media top first, facing
forward.
3Readjust the guides to center the sheet.
Note If you have loaded special media, make sure to choose the lower paper
output path. See “To select the output path” on page 31.
30 Chapter 2 - Getting to Know the ProductEN
Selecting the output path
Selecting the output path determines whether printed media come out
of the paper output bin or out of the front paper output slot. Choose
the front paper output slot if you are printing on special media, such
as 28 lb (100 g/m
transparencies, or labels. This prevents wrinkling and paper curl.
To select the output path
lTo use the paper output bin, make sure that the front paper path
door is closed.
- Or -
lTo eliminate curl, use the straight-through paper path by openin g
the front paper path door. All printed media coming out of the
front paper output slot will be in reverse order.

NoteTo avoid jams, keep the area in front of the front paper path slot clear
so that media can easily exit the slot, and make sure the front paper
path door is completely open.

want to wait until the automatic redials have stopped or you have
stopped them yourself. Otherwise, the recipient might get the fax
twice: once from the manual redial attempt and once from one of the
automatic redial attempts.
NoteTo stop the current redial attempt for a fax, see “Canceling the current

receiving process in one of two ways:
lIf you are close to the product, press FAX/SEND on the control

Reprinting faxes
If a fax did not print because the toner ran out or if the fax prin te d on
the wrong type of media, you can try to reprint it. The actual number
of faxes stored for possible reprinting is determined by how much
memory is available. The most recent fax prints first; the oldest fax
prints last.
These faxes are continuously stored, and reprinting them does not
clear them from memory. To clear these faxes from memory, see
“Clearing faxes from memory” on page 89.
NoteYou do not need to use this procedure if faxes did not print because of
a jam or because the media ran out. During those situations, faxes are
received to memory. As soon as you clear the jam or refill the media,
faxes automatically resume printing.

Inserting a dial prefix
A dial prefix is a number or numbers automatically added to the
beginning of every fax number you enter at the control panel or from
the software. By default, this setting is Off. You may want to turn this
setting on and enter a prefix if, for example, you have to dial a
number such as “9” to get a phone line outside your company’s
phone system.
While this setting is on, you can still dial a fax number without the dial
prefix by using Manual Dial. See “Using Manual Dial” on page 77.

Using fax forwarding
You can set your product to forward incoming faxes to another fax
number. When the fax arrives at your product, it is stored in memory.
Then, your product dials the fax number you have specified and
sends the fax.
If it cannot forward a fax after repeated attempts because of an error,
such as the number being busy and redials failing, your product will
print the fax. If it runs out of memory while receiving a fax, it will
terminate the incoming fax and only forward the pages and partial
pages already stored in memory.
When using this feature, the product must be the one receiving faxes (not the computer) and the answer mode must be se t to
Automatic (see “Changing how the product answers incoming faxes”
on page 90).

Changing answer ring patterns
If you subscribe to ring pattern service with your telep hon e compa ny,
enable the product to detect ring patterns. If you do not have ring
pattern service, and you change this setting, the product will not be
able to receive faxes.
What is ring pattern service?
Ring pattern service, such as distinctive ring, is available from some
local telephone companies. It allows you to have two or three phone
numbers on one line. This costs less than paying for two or three
separate lines. Each of the phone numbers has a different ring
pattern. Ring patterns allow you to answer voice calls and allow the
product to answer fax calls.
How do I get the service?
Call your local telephone company to check the availability and to
subscribe. The service might not be available in all areas. Also, your
telephone company might use a different name for this service.
If ring pattern service is available and you choo se to sub scr ib e to it,
keep in mind the following:
lDetermine which ring pattern is used for phone calls and which is
used for fax calls.
lMake sure the telephone company assigns th e cor re ct ring
pattern to the fax number. In New Zealan d, it should be a doublering pattern with long pauses. The product ignores other ring
patterns.
lImportant! If you have an answering machine or computer
voicemail on this line for the other phone number, make sure
the product’s rings to answer is set to a lower number than the
rings to answer on the answering machine or voicemail. In the
case of ring pattern detection, the product must answer calls first
in order to be able to receive fax calls.
ENAdvanced receive fax features and settings 91
How will I know if it’s working?
After product installation is complete, ask someone you know to send
you a fax. Make sure you provide the correct fax number.
To change answer ring patterns
NoteDo not change the All Rings default setting if you do not have ring
pattern service from your telephone company. If you do not have ring
pattern service, and you change this setting, the product might not be

Changing autoreduction for incoming faxes
If the Fit To Page option is on, the product automatically reduces long
faxes to fit on the paper. If the feature is turned off, long faxes print at
full size on multiple pages.

This reduces the size of incoming faxes just slightly to prevent the
page stamp from forcing a received fax page onto two pages. The
default for this setting is On.
NoteMake sure the paper size setting matches the size of paper loaded in
the paper input tray. See “Changing the default pa per size for the paper
input tray” on page 38 for instructions.
