The status window is similar to the display included on the front panel of your
HP OfficeJet. It describes the current state of your HP OfficeJet, and it is always
available via 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 OfficeJet instructs the

Load paper or transparency film, or load originals
Your unit is designed to 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 comprehensive information, see the fully searchable Onscreen Guide. To access the
guide, go to the Director, click Help, and choose Onscreen Guide.
Load the input tray with letter-, legal-, or A4-size paper
For best results, adjust the paper settings each time you change paper types. For more
information, see “Set the paper type.”

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.

Review tips for loading specific types of paper
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. 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 or Premium Rapid-Dry 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 Card, Glossy Greeting Card, or Textured Greeting
Card Paper: 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.
EasOrPrn.book Page 9 Friday, June 28, 2002 3:06 PM

10 Chapter 4—Load paper or transparency film, or load originals
HP OfficeJet K Series
Load the input tray with envelopes (only works with printing)
Your HP OfficeJet 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 located on the right side toward the back of the output tray, with the
envelope flap up and on the left, until it stops.
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
(only works with
printing)
•Always use letter- or A4-size label sheets designed for use with
HP inkjet products (like Avery Inkjet Labels), and make sure that
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
(only works with
printing)
Insert a stack of postcards with the print-side down into the input
tray until it stops. Line the postcards up on the right side of the input
tray, slide the width adjuster up against the left side of the cards, and
slide the length adjuster in 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.
Adjust the left paper guide against the envelopes (be careful not to bend the
envelopes). Make sure the envelopes fit within the tray (do not overload it).

Chapter 4—Load paper or transparency film, or load originals 13
HP OfficeJet K Series
Load originals
If you are working with originals that are printed on 16-24 lb. (60-90 gsm) plain paper or
HP Premium Inkjet paper, you can load more than one in the automatic document feeder
(ADF). If you are working with photos or originals of an odd size (no smaller than 3-by-
3 inches or 76-by-76 millimeters), load them in the ADF one at a time. When working with
fragile, torn, or odd-sized originals, we recommend that you use a document sleeve or
sheet protector (available from most office-product stores) for the original. Place a
single sleeve into the ADF with the sealed edge first and the transparent side down.
1Place the original(s) in the ADF with the printed side facing toward the back and
with the top of the document pointing down.
2Adjust the document guides to fit your document.
Avoid paper jams
To avoid paper jams, remove papers from the output tray frequently. Output tray
capacity is affected by the type of paper and the amount of ink you are using. For more
information about output-tray capacity, see “Technical information.” For help with
clearing a paper jam, see the Troubleshooting Help available through the Director.

Regulatory information
The following sections describe product requirements from various regulatory agencies.
Notice to users of the U.S. telephone network: FCC requirements
This equipment complies with FCC rules, Part 68. On this equipment is a label that contains, among other
information, the FCC Registration Number and Ringer Equivalent Number (REN) for this equipment. If requested,
provide this information to your telephone company.
An FCC compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this equipment. This equipment is designed
to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible modular jack which is Part 68
compliant. This equipment connects to the telephone network through the following standard network interface
jack: USOC RJ-11C.
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have all
of those devices ring when your number is called. Too many devices on one line may result in failure to ring in
response to an incoming call. In most, but not all, areas the sum of the RENs of all devices should not exceed five
(5). To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should
call your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, your telephone company may discontinue your service
temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as
soon as possible. You will also be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC. Your telephone company
may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the proper operation of
your equipment. If they do, you will be given advance notice so you will have the opportunity to maintain
uninterrupted service.
If you experience trouble with this equipment, please contact the manufacturer, or look elsewhere in this manual,
for warranty or repair information. Your telephone company may ask you to disconnect this equipment from the
network until the problem has been corrected or until you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.

Chapter 11—Technical information 45
HP OfficeJet K Series
Notice to users of the Canadian telephone network
The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets
certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements as prescribed in the
appropriate Terminal Equipment Technical Requirements document(s). The Department does not guarantee the
equipment will operate to the user's satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the
local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of
connection. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent
degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be coordinated by a representative designated by the supplier. Any repairs
or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications
company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility,
telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may
be particularly important in rural areas.
CAUTION Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate
electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
Notice: The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) assigned to each terminal device provides an indication of the
maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface
may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer Equivalence
Numbers of all the devices does not exceed 5.
The REN for this product is 0.3B, based on FCC Part 68 test results.
Notice to all users of the European Economic Area (EEA)
This product is designed to work with the telephone networks in the following countries/regions:
Network compatibility depends on customer selected settings, which must be reset to use the equipment on a
telephone network in a country/region other than where the product was purchased. Contact the vendor or
Hewlett-Packard Company if addition product support is necessary.
This equipment comes with a telephone connector specific to the country/region where it was purchased.
This equipment has been certified by the manufacturer in accordance with Directive 1999/5/EC (annex II) for Pan-
European single-terminal connection to the public switched telephone network (PSTN). However, due to
differences between the individual PSTNs provided in different countries/regions, the approval does not, of itself,
give an unconditional assurance of successful operation on every PSTN network termination point.
In the event of problems, you should contact your equipment supplier in the first instance.
Notice to users of the Irish telephone network
This equipment is designed for DTMF tone dialing and loop disconnect dialing. In the unlikely event of problems
with loop disconnect dialing, it is recommended to use this equipment only with the DTMF tone dial setting.
