Even if you do not connect your HP PSC to a computer (also called stand-alone use), you can use the front panel to process copy jobs. You can change a wide variety of settings using the front-panel buttons and menu system. Depending on your model, your front panel may look slightly different from the diagram.

The status window is similar to the display included on the front panel of your HP PSC. It describes the current state of your HP PSC, and it is always available by right-clicking the status icon in the Windows status area (lower-right corner of the Windows taskbar). One of the default settings for your HP PSC instructs the computer to display the status window automatically if there is an issue that needs to be addressed, such as your

HP PSC being out of paper.

Depending on the current state of your HP PSC, a different icon appears in the Windows status area. Right-clicking an icon displays a shortcut menu that lets you display the status window or close the HP PSC software.

You can print and copy onto a variety of transparency films and paper types, weights, and sizes. It is important, however, that you choose the right paper and make sure that it is not damaged.

For best results, adjust the paper settings each time you change paper types or paper sizes. For more information, see “Set the paper type.”

1Pull out the bottom (input) tray, and slide the paper-width and -length adjusters to their outermost positions.

2Tap the stack on a flat surface to even the edges of the paper, and then check the paper for the following:

Make sure it is free of rips, dust, wrinkles, and curled or bent edges.

Make sure all the paper in the stack is the same size and type, unless you are working with photo paper.

3Insert paper into the input tray, print-side down and letterhead or top of page first, until it stops.

4Slide the paper-width and -length adjusters in until they stop at the edges of the paper, and be sure that the paper stack lies flat in the input tray and fits under the tab of the paper-length adjuster.

Do not overfill the input tray as this may cause paper jams.

5 Push the input tray back in until it stops.

The following table provides guidelines for loading certain types of paper and film. For best results, adjust the paper settings each time you change paper types and paper sizes. For more information, see “Set the paper type”.

Paper

Tips

 

 

 

 

HP papers

• HP Premium Inkjet paper: Locate the gray arrow on the

 

 

nonprinting side of the paper, and insert paper with the arrow

 

 

side facing up.

 

• HP Premium or Premium Plus Photo Paper: Load the glossy

 

 

(print) side down. Always load at least five sheets of regular

 

 

paper in the input tray first, and place the photo paper on top of

 

 

the regular paper.

 

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 tray first.

 

HP Iron-On T-shirt 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

 

 

just before using.) Manually feed one sheet at a time, with the

 

 

unprinted side facing down (the blue stripe faces up).

 

HP Greeting Cards, Glossy Greeting Cards, or Textured Greeting

 

 

Cards: Insert a small stack of HP greeting-card paper with the

 

 

print-side down into the input tray until it stops.

 

HP Restickable Inkjet Stickers: Place the sheets in the input tray,

 

 

print-side (sticker-side) down.

Paper

Tips

 

 

 

 

Legal-size paper

Even though the paper-length adjuster is fully extended, make sure

 

that the input tray itself is pushed all the way in.

 

 

 

Labels

Always use letteror A4-size label sheets designed for use with

(only works with

 

HP inkjet products (like Avery Inkjet Labels), and make sure that

printing)

 

the labels are not over two years old.

 

Fan the stack of labels to make sure none of the pages are

 

 

sticking together.

 

Place a stack of label sheets on top of standard paper in the input

 

 

tray, print-side down. Do not insert labels one sheet at a time.

 

 

Postcards

Insert a stack of postcards with the print-side down into the input

(only works with

tray until it stops. Line the postcards up on the right side of the input

printing)

tray, slide the width adjuster up against the left side of the cards, and

 

slide the length adjuster in until it stops.

 

 

Continuous

Continuous, banner paper is also known as computer or z-fold paper.

(banner) paper

Before loading banner paper, remove all other paper from the

(only works with

 

input tray, and then raise the output tray above the catch on the

printing)

 

right side.

WKH ULJKW VLGH

If you use non-HP paper, use 20-lb. paper and fan the paper before loading it.

Verify that the stack of banner paper contains at least five pages in the stack.

Carefully tear off the perforated edge strips from both sides of the paper stack, if any, and unfold and refold the paper to make sure the pages do not stick together.

Put the paper in the input tray so that the unattached edge is at the top of the stack. Insert the first edge into the input tray until it stops, as shown in the figure above.

Your HP PSC provides two methods for working with envelopes. Do not use shiny or embossed envelopes or envelopes that have clasps or windows.

If you are printing one envelope, use the envelope slot. Slide the envelope into the envelope slot, which is located on the right side toward the back of the output tray. The envelope should be inserted with the flap up and the flap positioned on the left, as shown in the illustration. Insert the leading edge of the envelope on the top of the output tray until it stops.

If you are printing multiple envelopes, remove all paper from the input tray, and then slide a stack of envelopes into the tray, with the envelope flaps up and to the left (print-side down), until they stop.
