Print media specifications

HP LaserJet printers produce excellent print quality. The printer accepts a variety of print media, such as cut-sheet paper (including recycled paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies, and custom-size paper. Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors affecting printer performance and output quality.
The printer can use a variety of paper and other print media in accordance with the guidelines in this guide. Media that does not meet these guidelines might cause the following problems:
Poor print quality
Increased jams
Premature wear on the printer, requiring repair
For best results, use only HP-brand paper and print media. Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of other brands. Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence or control their quality.
It is possible for media to meet all of the guidelines in this user guide and still not produce satisfactory results. This might be the result of incorrect handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels, or other variables over which HP has no control.
Before you purchase a large quantity of media, make sure that it meets the requirements specified in this user guide and in HP LaserJet Printer Family Media Guide. The guidelines can be downloaded from http://www.hp.com/support/ljpaperguide/. Always test media before you purchase a large quantity.
CAUTION
Using media that does not meet Hewlett-Packard's specifications might cause problems for the printer, requiring repair. This repair is not covered by the Hewlett-Packard warranty or service agreements.

Supported media sizes

The following are the supported media sizes:
Minimum: 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches)
Maximum: 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches)

Country/region-specific safety statements

Laser safety statement

The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has implemented regulations for laser products manufactured since August 1,
1976. Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in the United States. The printer is
certified as a "Class 1" laser product under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard according to the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968.
Since radiation emitted inside the printer is completely confined within protective housings and external covers, the laser beam cannot escape during any phase of normal user operation.
WARNING!
Using controls, making adjustments, or performing procedures other than those specified in this user guide could result in exposure to hazardous radiation.

Bluetooth

Bluetooth wireless technology is a low-power, short-range radio technology that can be used to wirelessly connect computers, printers, personal digital assistants, cell phones, and other devices.
Unlike infrared technology, Bluetooth's reliance on radio signals means that devices do not have to be in the same room, office, or cubicle or have an unobstructed line of sight in order to communicate. This wireless technology increases portability and efficiency within business networks.
Bluetooth adapters are available for USB and parallel connections.

Engine control system

The engine control system coordinates all printer functions, according to commands sent from the formatter. It drives the laser/scanner system, the image-formation system, and the pickup/feed/delivery system.
The engine control system contains the following components:
Dc controller
High-voltage PCA

Laser/scanner system

The laser/scanner system receives video signals from the dc controller and the formatter and converts the signals into latent images on the photosensitive drum.
Figure 5-5. Laser/scanner system
72 Chapter 5 Theory of operation ENWW
Page 85

Pickup/feed/delivery system

The pickup/feed/delivery system consists of several types of feed rollers and sensors. The dc controller uses two motors and two solenoids to drive the rollers. Three media-detection sensors detect media as it passes through the printer. If media does not reach or pass each sensor within a specified time period, the dc controller determines that a jam has occurred and alerts the formatter.
The following components are identified in

Image-formation system

Laser printing requires the interaction of several different technologies, including electronics, optics, and electrophotographics, to provide a printed page. Each process functions independently and must be coordinated with the other printer processes. Image formation consists of the following five processes:
electrostatic latent-image formation
developing
transfer
fusing
drum cleaning
Figure 5-7.
The five processes contain eight steps, which are shown in
system and described in the following sections.
Image-formation system
Step 1: Primary charging
Dc and ac biases are applied to the primary charging roller, which transfers a uniform negative potential to the photosensitive drum.
Figure 5-7. Image-formation
Figure 5-8. Primary charging
Step 2: Laser beam exposure
The laser beam scans the photosensitive drum to neutralize negative charges on parts of the drum. An electrostatic latent image is formed on the drum where negative charges were neutralized.
ENWW Image-formation system 75
Page 88
Step 3: Developing
The developing cylinder comes in contact with the photosensitive drum to deposit toner onto the electrostatic latent image.
NOTE
Figure 5-9.
The charges on the exposed area of the drum are shown as positive in Figure 5-9.
Developing. The charges are actually negative, but they are more positive than the charges
on the developing cylinder.
Developing
Toner acquires a negative charge through friction from the developing cylinder and the blade. When the negatively charged toner comes in contact with the drum, the toner adheres to the electrostatic latent image. The image on the drum becomes visible because of the toner.
Step 4: Transfer
The transfer charging roller, to which a dc positive bias is applied, imparts a positive charge on the print media. When the print media comes in contact with the photosensitive drum, the toner is transferred to the print media.
Figure 5-10. Transfer
Step 5: Separation
76 Chapter 5 Theory of operation ENWW
Page 89
The elasticity of the print media causes its separation from the photosensitive drum. A static charge eliminator aids separation by weakening any electrostatic adhesion.
Figure 5-11. Separation
Step 6: Fusing
The dc negative bias applied to the fusing film strengthens the holding force of the toner on the print media and prevents the toner from scattering.
Figure 5-12. Fusing
Step 7: Drum cleaning
ENWW Image-formation system 77
Page 90
The cleaning blade scrapes the residual toner off of the photosensitive drum and deposits it into the waste toner case.
