Print-media specifications


For optimum results, HP recommends using HP media that is designed for HP Color LaserJet printers. Use media with a weight between 75 g/m2 to 120 g/m2 (20 to 32 lb bond). Although the printer supports media with weights between 60 g/m2 to 220 g/m2 (16 to 58 lb bond), using lighter or heavier media could impact the paper-jam rate and the optimal print-quality performance.

Always use the correct media-type setting in the printer driver, and configure the trays for the correct media type. HP recommends testing any paper before buying it in large quantities.
