Selecting print media

In this section you will find information on:
l Selecting media to print l Selecting 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.
EN Selecting 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 can be adjusted to hold media measuring from 3 by 5 inches (76.2 by 127 mm) to 8.5 by 14 inches (216 by 356 mm). This includes, but is not limited to, the following paper and envelope sizes:

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:
l Remove self-adhesive notes. l Remove staples and paper clips. l Straighten any curls or wrinkles in documents before putting them
into the document feeder tray.
l Do not insert any document with glue, correction fluid, or wet ink
on it.
l Do not insert gum-backed paper or labels. l Place 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.)
l Avoid multiple-copy forms.

Loading print media to be faxed, copied, or scanned

Whether you want to fax, copy, or scan, the procedure for loading the document is the same. If your document is on a standard-weight paper (from 12 to 28 lb, or 46 to 105 g/m media” on page 26. If your document is a transparency, is in a carrier sheet, or is not on standard-weight paper, see “To load special items” on page 27.

26 Chapter 2 - Getting to Know the Product EN
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.
1 Do 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.
2 Adjust the guides in the document feeder tray to fit the size of the
item you are loading.
3 Locate 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.
CAUTION Do not move the lever after the product has begun sending the page.
EN Loading print media 27
4 Load 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.
5 Move 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.
Note Insert 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
1 Adjust the guides on the paper input tray to fit the size of media
you are loading.
28 Chapter 2 - Getting to Know the Product EN
2 Insert up to 125 sheets of paper into the paper input tray. Be
careful not to overfill the tray.
Note When 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.
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.
3 Readjust 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.
Note The 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
1 Adjust the guides on the single-sheet input slot to the
approximate size of the sheet you are using.
EN Loading print media 29
2 Insert one sheet of media into the single-sheet input slot. If
loading special media or letterhead, insert media top first, facing forward.
3 Readjust 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 Product EN

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
l To use the paper output bin, make sure that the front paper path
door is closed.
- Or -
l To 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.

Note To 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.

Faxing

Introduction

All users can fax to and from the product. The product operates just like a regular fax machine; you do not have to install the software or have the computer on for it to work. From the control panel, you can send and receive paper faxes and adjust all settings needed for faxing.
Normally, received faxes are printed at the product. However, you can choose to have incoming faxes routed to your computer if it is directly connected to the product, or to anot he r fa x ma ch ine .
This section provides an overview of faxing capabilities from the control panel, as well as information about fax default settings.
Hint You can find out what product settings are curr ently selected by printing
a configuration report (see “Printing a configuration report” on page 48).

Sending faxes to one recipient

This procedure details how to send a fax to one recipient.
Hint If you want to improve the quality of a paper document before faxing
it, scan the document first and straighten or clean the image. Then, send it as a fax from the software. See the software Help for more information.
To send a fax
1 Dial the fax number using one of the following methods:
• Use the numeric keys.
• If the fax number you are calling has been assigned to a one­touch key, press that key.
• If the fax number you are calling has a speed-dial code, press
S
PEED DIAL, enter the speed-dial code using the numeric keys,
and press E
NTER/MENU.
Note When dialing using the numeric keys, include any pauses or other
needed numbers, such as an area code, an access code for numbers outside a PBX system (usually a 9 or 0), or a long-distance prefix. See “Using dialing characters” on page 78 for more information.
2 Load the document into the document feeder tray. 3 Adjust any options, such as contrast or resolution. 4 Press F
After the last page of the fax has exited the product, you can start sending another fax, copying, or scanning.
Hints To fax to numbers you use regularly, you can assign a one-touch key
or speed-dial code. See “About speed-dial codes, one-touch keys, and group-dial codes” on page 70 for instructions.
If you have electronic phone books available, you can use them for selecting recipients. Electronic phone books are generated with third­party applications. See the software Help for more information.

Sending faxes to multiple recipients

You can send a paper fax to several fax numbers at on ce. If you wa nt to send a fax to a group of fax numbers you have assigned to a group-dial code, see “To send a fax using a group-dial code.” If you want to send to up to 20 numbers that do no t have a group -dial cod e, see “To send a fax to an ad-hoc group.”
In the rare instance that your document does not fit into memory, you will need to send the document to each fax number one at a time, or use the HP LaserJet Director.
Note The HP LaserJet Director is not supported for Microsoft Windows 95.
Hint If you want to improve the quality of a paper document before faxing
it, scan the document first and straighten or clean the image. Then, send it as a fax from the software. See the software Help for more information.

Sending a fax at a future time

You can schedule a fax to be sent automatically at a future time to one or more people. When you complete this procedure, the product scans the document into memory and retu rn s t o the Rea d y stat e so you can do other tasks.
Note This feature is not supported for Microsoft Windows 95.
If the product cannot transmit the fax at the scheduled time, it is indicated on the fax call report (if that option is turned on) o r logged in the fax activity log. This can happen in the case of a no answer or if a busy results in the failure of redial attempts. (See “Setting when the fax call report prints” on page 45 or “Printing the fax activity log” on page 43 for more information.)
Hint If you have set a fax to send at a future time but need to add something
to it, you can send the additional information as another job. All faxes scheduled to go to the same fax number on the same date and time are delivered as individual faxes. If a power failure occurs, any pending faxes will need to be rescheduled.

Redialing manually

If you want to send another document to the last fax number dialed, use the following procedure to manually redial. If you are trying to resend the same document you sent the first time, you will probably 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.
Note To stop the current redial attempt for a fax, see “Canceling the current
fax job” on page 64. To cancel all pending, automatic redial attempts for a fax, see “Canceling a fax job using Fax Job Status.” To change when the product redials, see “Changing how the product redials” on page 83.

Receiving faxes

You can receive faxes to the product or to your computer. In gen er al, incoming faxes to the product are automatically answered, however if you change what devices are connected to the same phone line to which the product is connected, you will need to change how the product answers incoming faxes. See the “Changing how the product answers incoming faxes” on page 90 topic in the “Advanced receive fax features and settings” section.
Follow the procedures in this section to manage faxes routed to the product.
l Receiving faxes when you hear fax tones l Reprinting faxes l Blocking or unblocking fax numbers

Receiving faxes when you hear fax tones

If you have a phone line that receives both fax and phone calls and you hear fax tones when you answer the phone, you can start the receiving process in one of two ways:
l If you are close to the product, press FAX/SEND on the control
panel.
l When you answer any phone connected to th e line (an extensio n
phone) and hear fax tones, the product should begin answering the call automatically. If not, press 1-2-3, in sequence on the telephone keypad, listen for fax transmission sounds, and then hang up.
Note For the second method to work, the Extension phone setting must be
set to Yes. See “Enabling an extension phone” on page 93 to check or change the setting.
EN Receiving faxes 65

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.
Note You 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.
To reprint faxes
1 Print a fax activity log to check which faxes may have been lost.

About speed-dial codes, one-touch keys, and group-dial codes

To simplify the dialing process for a fax number you dial frequently from the control panel, store it in a one-touch key, speed-dial code, or group-dial code. In the phone book, ther e ar e a to ta l of 250 cod es available for the HP LaserJet 3200 product and 275 codes for the HP LaserJet 3200se and 3200m product that can be used for speed-dial codes and group-dial codes. For exampl e, if you ar e usin g the HP LaserJet 3200se product and program 200 of the codes as speed­dials, the remaining 75 can be used for group-dials.

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:
l Determine which ring pattern is used for phone calls and which is
used for fax calls.
l Make 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.
l Important! 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.
EN Advanced 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.

Note Do 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 able to receive faxes.

This setting controls whether or not you can receive faxes from older­model fax machines that do not emit a fax signal during fax transmissions. At the time of this publication, these silent-model fax machines represented very few of the fax machines in use.
The default setting is No. It should be changed only if you regularly receive faxes from someone with an older-model fax machine.

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.
If you have the page stamp option on, you may want to choo se On. 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.
Note Make 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.

Setting error correction

Normally, the product monitors the signals on the telephone line while it is sending or receiving a fax. If the product detects an error signal during the transmission and the Error Correction setting is on, the product can request that a portion of the fax be resent.
The factory default for this setting is On. Only change it to Off if you are having trouble sending or receiving a fax and want to accept the errors in the transmission. Turning the setting off might be useful when you are trying to send or receive a fax overseas or using a satellite telephone connection.
