Select print media

Consider these factors when choosing print media.
10 Chapter 1 Product information ENWW
Media that can damage the printer
Do not use media that can damage the printer.
Do not use media with staples attached.
Do not use transparencies, labels, photo, or glossy paper designed for inkjet printers or other
low temperature printers. Use only media that is specified for use with HP Color LaserJet printers.
Do not use paper that is embossed or coated and is not designed for the temperatures of the
fuser.
Do not use letterhead paper with low temperature dyes or thermography. Preprinted forms or
letterhead must use inks that are designed for the temperatures of heat of the fuser.
Do not use any media that produces hazardous emissions, or that melts, offsets, or discolors
when exposed to the temperature of the fuser.
Do not print on the back side of media that is designed to be printed on one side only.
To order HP LaserJet printing supplies, go to
http://www.hp.com/ghp/buyonline.html/ worldwide.
http://www.hp.com/go/ljsupplies/ in the U.S. or to
Media to avoid
Media outside the printer specifications will cause a loss of print quality and increase the occurrence of jams.
Do not use paper that is too rough. Use paper less than 250 Sheffield smoothness tested.
Do not use paper with cutouts or perforations other than standard 3-hole punched paper.
Do not use multi-part or multi-page forms.
To ensure even color, do not use paper with a watermark if printing solid patterns.

ENWW Installing optional tray 3 17

Installing memory DIMMs

When installing more memory for the MFP, it is possible to install a DIMM to print characters for languages such as Chinese, or for the Cyrillic alphabet.
CAUTION Static electricity can damage DIMMs. When handling DIMMs, wear an antistatic
wrist strap, or frequently touch the surface of the DIMM antistatic package then touch bare metal on the MFP.
1. Print a Configuration page by pressing OK and Cancel simultaneously. (A Supplies Status may
also page print.)
2. After the Configuration page prints, turn the MFP off and disconnect the power cable.
3. On the left rear side of the MFP, open the DIMM door.
18 Chapter 2 Installation ENWW
4. Release the locks on each side of the DIMM slot.
5. Remove the DIMM from the antistatic package.
