Load originals and load paper
This chapter provides instructions for loading originals on the glass to copy, scan, or
fax; choosing the best paper type for your job; loading paper in the paper tray; and
avoiding paper jams.
Load an original
You can copy or scan up to letter- or A4-size originals by loading them on the glass,
as described here. You should also follow these instructions when loading a proof
sheet on the glass for photo printing.
Note Many of the special features will not work correctly if the glass and lid
backing are not clean. For more information, see Clean the HP All-in-One.
To load an original on the glass
1. Lift the lid and place your original face down on the right front corner of the glass.
If you are loading a proof sheet, make sure the top of the proof sheet is lined up
against the right edge of the glass.
Tip For more help on loading an original, refer to the guides along the
front and right edges of the glass.
2. Close the lid.
Tip You can copy or scan oversized originals by completely removing the
lid from your HP All-in-One. To remove the lid, lift the lid to the open
position, grasp the sides of the lid, and then pull the lid upward. Your
HP All-in-One functions normally with the lid removed. Replace the lid by

Choose papers for printing and copying
You can use many types and sizes of paper in your HP All-in-One. Review the
following recommendations to get the best printing and copying quality. Whenever you
change paper types or sizes, remember to change those settings.
Recommended papers
If you want the best print quality, HP recommends using HP papers that are
specifically designed for the type of project you are printing. If you are printing photos,
for example, load glossy or matte photo paper in the paper tray. If you are printing a
brochure or presentation, use a type of paper specifically designed for that purpose.
For more information about HP papers, see the onscreen HP Image Zone Help, or
see the HP website:
www.hp.com/support/inkjet_media
Note At this time, this portion of the site is available in English only.
Papers to avoid
Using paper that is too thin, paper that has a slick texture, or paper that stretches
easily can cause paper jams. Using paper that has a heavy texture or does not accept
ink can cause printed images to smear, bleed, or not fill in completely.
We do not recommend printing to the following papers:
● Paper with cutouts or perforations (unless specifically designed for use with
HP inkjet devices).
● Highly textured stock, such as linen. It might not print evenly, and the ink can
bleed into these papers.
● Extremely smooth, shiny, or coated papers not specifically designed for your
HP All-in-One. They can jam the HP All-in-One or repel the ink.
● Multi-part forms (such as duplicate and triplicate forms). They can wrinkle or get

stuck, and the ink is more likely to smear.
● Envelopes with clasps or windows. They can get stuck in the rollers and cause
paper jams).
● Banner paper.
Depending on your country/region, some of these papers might not be available.
We do not recommend copying to the following papers:
● Any size paper other than letter, A4, 10 x 15 cm (4 x 6 inch), 13 x 18 cm (5 x 7
inch), Hagaki (Japan only), or L (Japan only). Depending on your country/region,
some of these papers might not be available to you.
● Panoramic papers.
● Paper with cutouts or perforations (unless specifically designed for use with
HP inkjet devices).
● Envelopes.
● Banner paper.
● Transparency film (other than HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film or
HP Premium Plus Inkjet Transparency Film).
● Multiple-part forms or label stock.
Load paper
This section describes the procedure for loading different types and sizes of paper
into your HP All-in-One for your copies or printouts.
Caution To help prevent rips, wrinkles, and curled or bent edges, store all

changes in temperature and humidity might result in curled paper that does not
work well in the HP All-in-One.

Load other types of paper
The following table provides guidelines for loading certain types of paper. For best
results, adjust the paper settings each time you change paper sizes or paper types.
For information on changing paper settings, see the onscreen HP Image Zone Help.
Note Not all paper sizes and paper types are available with all the functions
on the HP All-in-One. Some paper sizes and paper types can only be used if

Paper
Tips
HP papers ● HP Premium Paper: Locate the gray arrow on the nonprinting side
of the paper, and then slide the paper into the paper tray with the
arrow side facing up.
● HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film: Insert the film so that the
white transparency strip (with arrows and the HP logo) is on top
and is going into the paper tray first. For printing from a software
application only.
Note The HP All-in-One cannot automatically detect transparency
film. For best results, set the paper type to transparency film
before printing or copying onto transparency film.
● HP Iron-On Transfers: Flatten the transfer sheet completely before
using it; do not load curled sheets. (To prevent curling, keep
transfer sheets sealed in the original package until you are ready
to use them.) Locate the blue stripe on the nonprinting side of the
transfer paper and then manually feed one sheet at a time into the
paper tray with the blue stripe facing up. For printing from a
software application only.
● HP Greeting Cards, HP Photo Greeting Cards, or HP Textured
Greeting Cards: Insert a small stack of HP greeting card paper into
the paper tray with the print side down; slide the stack of cards
forward until it stops. For printing from a software application only.
Labels Always use letter or A4 label sheets designed for use with HP inkjet
devices (such as Avery inkjet labels), and make sure that the labels are
no more than two years old. Labels on older sheets might peel off
when the HP All-in-One, causing paper jams. For printing from a
software application only.
1. Fan the stack of labels to make sure none of the pages are
sticking together.
2. Place a stack of label sheets on top of full-size plain paper in the
paper tray, label side down. Do not insert labels one sheet at a time.
