10 Chapter 2 Control panel ENWW

The printer communicates through the display and the lights on the lower part of the control panel. The display shows status information, as well as menus, help information, and error messages. The Ready, Data, and Attention lights provide at-a-glance information about the printer state.

You can perform most routine printing tasks from the computer through the printer driver or any software program. Use the control panel to access printer features not supported by the printer driver or software program. Any changes that you make from the computer will override the printer control-panel settings.

ENWW Control-panel overview 11

The message and prompt areas of the display alert you to the state of the printer and tell you how to respond.

The supplies gauge shows the consumption levels of print cartridges (black, cyan, magenta, and yellow). When a non-HP print cartridge is installed, a ? might appear instead of the consumption level. The supplies gauge appears whenever the printer shows the Ready state, and whenever the printer shows a warning or error message concerning a cartridge.

ENWW Special paper or print media guidelines 63

Load media

The following sections describe how to load media into the different input trays.

CAUTION: If you try to print on media that is wrinkled, folded, or damaged in any way, a jam might

occur.

Load tray 1 (multipurpose tray)

Tray 1 is a multipurpose tray that holds up to 100 sheets of paper or 10 envelopes. It provides a convenient way to print envelopes, transparencies, custom-size paper, or other types of paper without having to unload the other trays.

Load paper in tray 1

CAUTION: Avoid adding print media to tray 1 while the printer is printing, or jams can occur.

1. Open tray 1.

NOTE: If printing on special media, such as envelopes, use tray 1. See Load envelopes in tray

1 on page 66 for more information.

2. Slide the output bin extension out from the bin.

64 Chapter 6 Paper and print media ENWW

3. Slide out the tray extender and, if necessary, open the additional tray extender.

4. Slide the width guides slightly wider than the print media.

5. Place print media into the tray with the side to be printed down, and the top, short edge in first.

NOTE: If you are printing on two sides, see Print on both sides of the paper (duplex printing)

on page 95 for loading instructions.

ENWW Load media 65

6. Slide the paper width guides inward until they lightly touch the print media stack on both sides

without bending it. Make sure that the media fits under the tabs on the width guides.

CAUTION: Wait for the printer to finish printing before closing tray 1 (optional). Closing the tray

before the printer finishes can cause jams.

Load envelopes in tray 1

Many types of envelopes can be printed from tray 1. Up to 10 envelopes can be stacked in the tray. Printing performance depends on the construction of the envelope.

In the software, set margins at least 15 mm (0.6 in) from the edge of the envelope.

NOTE: Testing has shown that fusing performance is improved when the Extra Heavy fuser mode is

used when printing on C5 and B5 envelopes. To change this setting, press Menu. Then press highlight CONFIGURE DEVICE, and then press press

HEAVY, and then press

CAUTION: Envelopes that contain clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings, exposed self-stick

adhesives, or other synthetic materials can severely damage the printer. To avoid jams and possible printer damage, never try to print on both sides of an envelope. Before you load envelopes, make sure that they are flat, undamaged, and not stuck together. Do not use envelopes that contain pressuresensitive adhesive. To avoid jams, do not remove or insert envelopes during printing.

1. Open tray 1.

Load tray 3

Optional tray 3 holds up to 500 sheets of standard paper and adjusts for many sizes. Tray 3 is installed underneath tray 2. When tray 3 is installed, the printer detects it and lists tray 3 as a choice in the control panel CONFIGURE DEVICE menu.

CAUTION: The paper path for tray 3 passes through tray 2. If either tray 2 or tray 3 is partially pulled

out or removed, media from tray 3 cannot feed into the printer. This causes the printer to jam.

1. Pull the tray out of the printer and remove any media.

6. Make sure that the stack of media is flat in the tray at all four corners, and keep it below the height

tabs.

7. Slide the tray back into the printer.

72 Chapter 6 Paper and print media ENWW

Configure trays

You can configure the printer trays by type and size. Load different media in the printer trays and then request media by type or size in the software program.

NOTE: If you have used previous HP Color LaserJet printers, you might be accustomed to configuring

tray 1 to first mode or cassette mode. To mimic the settings for first mode, configure tray 1 for ANY SIZE and ANY TYPE. The printer will pull paper from tray 1 first (if paper is loaded in that tray) when

the print job does not specify another tray. This setting is recommended if you use different types or sizes of paper in tray 1. To mimic the settings from cassette mode, set either the size or type for tray 1 to a setting other than ANY SIZE or ANY TYPE. This setting is recommended if you are using the same size and type of paper in tray 1.

NOTE: If you use 2-sided printing, be sure that the media meets the specifications for duplex printing.

Configure tray 1 for custom paper

Use the ANY SIZE size setting when the selected media does not exactly match the size of the paper specified in the document you are printing. If no source tray is specified, the printer looks first for paper that exactly matches the document, and then it looks for and prints from a tray set to ANY SIZE or ANY TYPE.

Use the ANY CUSTOM setting when you want to be able to print a number of custom sizes from the tray without defining a set size for each job. Use the CUSTOM setting when you want to print a specific print size from a particular tray. When you print a custom job, the printer looks for an exact size match. If it does not find an exact match to the custom size specified, it looks for a tray set to ANY CUSTOM. Finally, the printer looks for and uses media from a tray set to ANY SIZE.

ENWW Configure trays 73

There are three steps to set up custom paper. When all are completed, the display returns to the PAPER

Automatic media type sensing (auto sense mode)

The HP Color LaserJet CP3505 automatically classifies media into one of the following categories:

Plain

●

Transparency

●

Glossy

●

Extra-heavy glossy

●

Glossy film

●

Heavy

●

Light

●

The automatic media type sensor functions only when that tray is configured to Any Type Plain. Configuring a tray to any other type, such as Bond or Glossy, deactivates the media sensor in that tray.

NOTE: Get optimal performance with the automatic media sensing feature when using original HP

media designed for use in HP color LaserJet printers.

NOTE: When printing on heavy media such as cardstock, glossy, or envelopes, achieve optimum print

quality by setting the media type through the control panel or software application before printing the job.

Tray 1 sensing

Full sensing (default)

The printer stops at each page to sense media type.

●

This is the best mode for using mixed media in a single print job.

●

Expanded sensing

Each time the printer begins a print job, it stops the first page to sense the type.

●

The printer assumes that the second and all subsequent pages are of the same media type as the

●

first page.

This is the second-fastest mode, and is useful for using stacks of the same media type.

●

76 Chapter 6 Paper and print media ENWW

Transparency

The printer does not stop any pages for sensing but distinguishes between transparencies

●

(Transparency mode) and paper (Normal mode).

This is the fastest mode and is useful for high-volume printing in Normal mode.

●

Tray 2 or tray 3 sensing

Expanded sensing

The printer stops the first five pages fed from each paper tray to sense the type and averages the

●

five results.

The printer assumes that the sixth and all subsequent pages are of the same media type, until the

●

printer is turned off or goes into sleep mode, or until the tray is opened.

Transparency only (default)

The printer does not stop any pages for sensing but distinguishes between transparencies

●

(Transparency mode) and paper (Normal mode).

For information about opening the printer driver, see Change printer-driver settings for Windows

86 Chapter 8 Print tasks ENWW

Control print jobs

In Windows, three settings affect how the printer driver pulls media when you send a print job. The Source, Type, and Size settings appear in the Page Setup, Print, or Print Properties dialog boxes in most software programs. If you do not change these settings, the printer automatically uses the default printer settings to select a tray.

CAUTION: Make printer setup changes through the software program or the printer driver whenever

possible, because changes that you make at the control panel become default settings for subsequent print jobs. Settings selected in the software or the printer driver override control-panel settings.

Source

Print by Source to specify a tray from which the printer will pull media. The printer tries to print from this tray, no matter what type or size is loaded in it. If you select a tray that is configured for a type or size that does not match your print job, the job does not proceed until you load the tray with the correct type or size. If you load the tray correctly, the printer begins printing. If you press tray.

NOTE: If you have difficulties printing by Source, see Priority for print settings on page 37.

Type and Size

Print by Type or Size when you want to pull media from the first tray that is loaded with the type or size that you select. Selecting media by type rather than source is similar to locking out trays and helps protect special media from accidental use. For example, if a tray is configured for letterhead, and you specify that the driver print on plain paper, the printer will not pull media from that tray, but will pull paper from a tray that has plain paper loaded and is configured for plain paper.

, you can select another

NOTE: Selecting the Any setting negates the tray lock-out function.

Selecting media by type and size results in significantly better print quality for heavy paper, glossy paper, and overhead transparencies. Using the wrong setting can result in unsatisfactory print quality. Always print by Type for special print media, such as labels or transparencies. Always print by Size for envelopes.

If you want to print by Type or Size and the trays have not been configured for a certain type or

●

size, load the media into tray 1. Then, in the printer driver, select the Type or Size in the Page Setup, Print, or Print Properties dialog box.

If you often print on a certain type or size of media, the printer administrator (for a network printer)

●

or you (for a local printer) can configure a tray for that type or size. Then, when you select that type or size as you print a job, the printer pulls from the tray configured for that type or size. See

Configure trays on page 73.
