General guidelines for media
Before purchasing any paper or specialized forms in quantity, verify that your paper supplier has
obtained and understands the print-media requirements that are specified in the HP LaserJet Printer
Family Print Media Guide.
See HP Customer Care to order the HP LaserJet Printer Family Print Media Guide. To download a copy
of the guide, go to www.hp.com/support/ljpaperguide.
It is possible that paper could meet all of the guidelines in this chapter or the HP LaserJet Printer Family
Print Media Guide and still not print satisfactorily. This can result from abnormal characteristics of the
printing environment or other variables over which HP has no control (for example, extremes in
temperature and humidity).
Hewlett-Packard Company recommends testing any paper before buying it in large quantities.
CAUTION Using paper that does not conform to the specifications listed here or in the print
media guide can cause problems that require service. This service is not covered by the Hewlett-
Packard warranty or service agreements.
Paper to avoid
The product can handle many types of paper. Using paper that does not meet specifications will cause
lower print quality and increase the chance of jams.
●Do not use paper that is too rough. Use paper with a tested smoothness rating of 100–250 Sheffield.
●Do not use paper, other than standard 3-hole punched paper, that contains cutouts or perforations.
●Do not use multipart forms.
●Do not use paper that has already been printed on, or that has been fed through a photocopier.
●Do not use paper that contains a watermark if you are printing solid patterns.
●Do not use heavily embossed or raised-letterhead papers.
●Do not use papers that have heavily textured surfaces.
●Do not use offset powders or other materials that prevent printed forms from sticking together.
●Do not use paper that has a colored coating that was added after the paper was produced.
Paper that can damage the device
In rare circumstances, paper can damage the device. The following paper must be avoided to prevent
possible damage to the device:
●Do not use paper with staples attached.
●Do not use transparencies, labels, or photo or glossy paper designed for Inkjet printers or other
low temperature printers. Use only media that is specified for use with HP LaserJet printers.
56 Chapter 4 Media and trays ENWW
●Do not use any media that produces hazardous emissions, or that melts, offsets, or discolors when
exposed to the temperature of the fuser.
●Do not use paper that is embossed or coated, or any media that is not designed to withstand the
fusing temperature of the device. Do not use letterhead paper or preprinted forms that are made
with dyes or inks that cannot withstand the heat of the fuser.

Media considerations
Envelopes
Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary considerably, not only between
manufacturers, but also within a box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on envelopes
depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the following
components:
●Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 105 g/m
2
(28 lb) or jamming might
occur.
●Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 5 mm (0.2 in) curl, and
should not contain air.
●Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.
●Temperature: You should use envelopes that are compatible with the heat and pressure of the
product.
●Size: You should use only envelopes within the following size ranges.
●Minimum: 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 in)
●Maximum: 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 in)
CAUTION To avoid damaging the device, use only envelopes recommended for laser printers.
To prevent serious jams, always use tray 1 to print envelopes and always use the rear output bin.
Never print on the same envelope more than once.
Envelopes with double side seams
Double side-seam construction has vertical seams at both ends of the envelope rather than diagonal
seams. This style might be more likely to wrinkle. Be sure the seam extends all the way to the corner
of the envelope as illustrated below.
1
2
1Acceptable envelope construction
2Unacceptable envelope construction
58 Chapter 4 Media and trays ENWW
Envelopes with adhesive strips or flaps
Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use
adhesives compatible with the heat and pressure in the product. The extra flaps and strips might cause
wrinkling, creasing, or even jams and might even damage the fuser.
Envelope margins
The following gives typical address margins for a commercial #10 or DL envelope.
Type of address Top margin Left margin
Return address 15 mm (0.6 in) 15 mm (0.6 in)
Delivery address 51 mm (2 in) 89 mm (3.5 in)
NOTE For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm (0.6 in) from the edges
of the envelope. Avoid printing over the area where the envelope seams meet.
Envelope storage
Proper storage of envelopes helps contribute to print quality. Envelopes should be stored flat. If air is
trapped in an envelope, creating an air bubble, then the envelope might wrinkle during printing.
Labels
CAUTION To avoid damaging the device, use only labels recommended for laser printers. To
prevent serious jams, always use tray 1 to print labels and always use the rear output bin. Never
print on the same sheet of labels more than once or print on a partial sheet of labels.
Label construction
When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component:
●Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 200°C (392°F), which is the product fusing
temperature.
●Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets
with spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.
●Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 5 mm (0.2 in) of curl in any direction.
●Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation.
NOTE Choose labels in the printer driver (see Open the printer drivers).
Transparencies
Transparencies used in the product must be able to withstand 200°C (392°F), which is the product fusing
temperature.
ENWW Media considerations 59
CAUTION To avoid damaging the product, use only transparencies recommended for laser
printers. To prevent serious jams, always use tray 1 to print transparencies and always use the
rear output bin. Never print on the same transparency more than once or print on a partial
transparency.
NOTE Choose transparencies in the printer driver. See Open the printer drivers.
Card stock and heavy media
You can print many types of card stock from the input tray, including index cards and postcards. Some
card stock performs better than others because its construction is better suited for feeding through a
laser printer.
For optimum performance, do not use paper heavier than 199 g/m
2
(53 lb). Paper that is too heavy might
cause misfeeds, stacking problems, jams, poor toner fusing, poor print quality, or excessive mechanical
wear.
NOTE You might be able to print on heavier paper if you do not fill the input tray to capacity
and if you use paper with a smoothness rating of 100-180 Sheffield.
In either the software program or the printer driver, select Heavy (106 g/m
2
to 163 g/m
2
; 28- to 43-lb
bond) or Cardstock (135 g/m
2
to 216 g/m
2
; 50- to 80-lb cover) as the media type, or print from a tray
that is configured for heavy paper. Because this setting affects all print jobs, it is important to return the
product back to its original settings after the job has printed.
Card stock construction
●Smoothness: 135-157 g/m
2
(36-42 lb) card stock should have a smoothness rating of
100-180 Sheffield. 60-135 g/m
2
(16-36 lb) card stock should have a smoothness rating of
100-250 Sheffield.
●Construction: Card stock should lie flat with less than 5 mm (0.2 inch) of curl.
●Condition: Make sure that the card stock is not wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.
Card stock guidelines
●Set margins at least 2 mm (0.08 inch) away from the edges.
●Use tray 1 for card stock (135 g/m
2
to 216 g/m
2
; 50- to 80-lb cover).
CAUTION To avoid damaging the device, use only card stock recommended for laser printers.
To prevent serious jams, always use tray 1 to print on card stock and always use the
rear output bin.
Letterhead and preprinted forms
Letterhead is premium paper that often has a watermark, sometimes uses cotton fiber, and is available
in a wide range of colors and finishes with matching envelopes. Preprinted forms can be made of a
broad spectrum of paper types ranging from recycled to premium.
Many manufacturers now design these grades of paper with properties optimized for laser printing and
advertise the paper as laser compatible or laser guaranteed. Some of the rougher surface finishes, such
60 Chapter 4 Media and trays ENWW
as cockle, laid, or linen, might require the special fuser modes that are available on some printer models
to achieve adequate toner adhesion.
NOTE Some page-to-page variation is normal when printing with laser printers. This variation
cannot be observed when printing on plain paper. However, this variation is obvious when printing
on preprinted forms because the lines and boxes are already placed on the page.
To avoid problems when using preprinted forms, embossed paper, and letterhead, observe the following
guidelines:
●Avoid using low-temperature inks (the kind used with some types of thermography).
●Use preprinted forms and letterhead paper that have been printed by offset lithography or
engraving.
●Use forms that have been created with heat-resistant inks that will not melt, vaporize, or release
emissions when heated to 200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second. Typically, oxidation-set or oil-based inks
meet this requirement.
●When the form is preprinted, be careful not to change the moisture content of the paper, and do
not use materials that change the paper's electrical or handling properties. Seal the forms in
moisture-proof wrap to prevent moisture changes during storage.
●Avoid processing preprinted forms that have a finish or coating.
●Avoid using heavily embossed or raised-letterhead papers.
●Avoid papers that have heavily textured surfaces.
●Avoid using offset powders or other materials that prevent printed forms from sticking together.
NOTE To print a single-page cover letter on letterhead, followed by a multiple-page document,
feed the letterhead face up in tray 1, and load the standard paper in tray 2. The device
automatically prints from tray 1 first.
Select the correct fuser mode
The device automatically adjusts the fuser mode based on the media type to which the tray is set. For
example, heavy paper, such as card stock, might need a higher fuser-mode setting in order to make the
toner adhere better to the page, but transparencies need a lower fuser-mode setting to avoid damage
to the device. The default setting generally provides the best performance for most print-media types.
The fuser mode can be changed only if the media type has been set for the tray that you are using.
See Control print jobs. After the media type has been set for the tray, then the fuser mode for that type
can be changed on the Administration menu in the Print Quality submenu at the device control panel.
See Print Quality menu.
NOTE Using the High 1 or High 2 fuser mode setting improves the ability of the toner to adhere
to paper, but it might cause other problems, such as excessive curl. The device might print at a
slower speed when the fuser mode is set to High 1 or High 2. The table below describes the ideal
fuser mode setting for supported media types.

62 Chapter 4 Media and trays ENWW
Select print media
This device accepts a variety of media, such as cut-sheet paper, including up to 100% recycled fiber
content paper; envelopes; labels; transparencies; and custom-size paper. Properties such as weight,
composition, grain, and moisture content are important factors that affect device performance and output
quality. Paper that does not meet the guidelines that are outlined in this manual can cause the following
problems:
●Poor print quality
●Increased jams
●Premature wear on the device, requiring repair
NOTE Some paper might meet all of the guidelines in this manual and still not produce
satisfactory results. This might be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and
humidity levels, or other variables over which Hewlett-Packard has no control. Before purchasing
large quantities of media, make sure that it meets the requirements that are specified in this user
guide and in the HP LaserJet Printer Family Print Media Guide, which is available for download

Printing and paper-storage environment
Ideally, the printing and paper-storage environment should be at or near room temperature, and not too
dry or too humid. Remember paper is hygroscopic; it absorbs and loses moisture rapidly.
Heat works with humidity to damage paper. Heat causes the moisture in paper to evaporate, while cold
causes it to condense on the sheets. Heating systems and air conditioners remove most of the humidity
from a room. As paper is opened and used, it loses moisture, causing streaks and smudging. Humid
weather or water coolers can cause the humidity to increase in a room. As paper is opened and used
it absorbs any excess moisture, causing light print and dropouts. Also, as paper loses and gains moisture
it can distort. This can cause jams.
As a result, paper storage and handling are as important as the paper-making process itself. Paper
storage environmental conditions directly affect the feed operation.
Care should be taken not to purchase more paper than can be easily used in a short time (about 3
months). Paper stored for long periods might experience heat and moisture extremes, which can cause
damage. Planning is important to prevent damage to a large supply of paper.
Unopened paper in sealed reams can remain stable for several months before use. Opened packages
of paper have more potential for environmental damage, especially if they are not wrapped with a
moisture-proof barrier.
The paper-storage environment should be properly maintained to ensure optimum product performance.
The required condition is 20° to 24°C (68° to 75°F), with a relative humidity of 45% to 55%. The following
guidelines should be helpful when evaluating the paper's storage environment:
●Paper should be stored at or near room temperature.
●The air should not be too dry or too humid (due to the hygroscopic properties of paper).
●The best way to store an opened ream of paper is to rewrap it tightly in its moisture-proof wrapping.
If the product environment is subject to extremes, unwrap only the amount of paper to be used
during the day's operation to prevent unwanted moisture changes.
●Proper storage of envelopes helps contribute to print quality. Envelopes should be stored flat. If air
is trapped in an envelope, creating an air bubble, then the envelope might wrinkle during
printing.

also flip open the additional tray extender.
3. Slide the media-width guides slightly wider than the media.
ENWW Load media 67
4. Place media into the tray (short-edge in, print-side up). The media should be centered between
the media-width guides and under the tabs on the media-width guides.
5. Slide the media-width guides inward until they lightly touch the media stack on both sides without
bending it. Make sure that the media fits under the tabs on the media-width guides.
NOTE Do not add media to tray 1 while the device is printing. This could cause a jam. Do not
close the front door when the device is printing.
Customize tray 1 operation
The device can be set to print from tray 1 if it is loaded, or to print only from tray 1 if the type of media
that is loaded is specifically requested.
Setting Explanation
Tray 1 size is set to Any Size
Tray 1 type is set to Any Type
The device usually pulls media from tray 1 first unless it is empty or closed. If you
do not keep media in tray 1 all the time, or if you use tray 1 only to manually feed
media, keep the default settings of the tray 1 size and type. The default settings
for both the tray 1 size and type are Any. You can change size and type settings
for tray 1 by touching the Trays tab under Supplies Status, and then touching
Modify.
Tray 1 size or type is set to anything other
than Any Size or Any Type
The device treats tray 1 like the other trays. Instead of looking for media in tray 1
first, the device pulls media from the tray that matches type and size settings that
are selected in the software.
In the printer driver, you can select media from any tray (including tray 1) by type,
size, or source. To print by type and size of paper, see Control print jobs.

Control print jobs
When a job is sent to the printer, the printer driver controls what paper tray is used to pull media through
the printer. By default, the printer automatically selects the tray, but a specific tray can be chosen based
on three user-specified settings: Source, Type, and Size. These settings are available from the
Application Setting dialog box, the Print dialog box, or the printer driver.
Setting Description
Source Directs the device to pull paper from a user-specified tray. The
device tries to print from this tray, no matter what type or size
media is loaded in it. To begin printing, load the selected tray
with the correct type or size of print media for the print job. After
loading the tray, the device begins printing. If the device does
not begin printing:
●Verify the tray configuration matches the size or type of
the print job.
●Press OK to have the device try to print from another tray.
Type or Size Directs the device to pull paper or print media from the first tray
that is loaded with the type or size that you selected. Always
print by Type for special print media such as labels or
transparencies.
72 Chapter 4 Media and trays ENWW
Select output bins
The product has two output bins into which it places finished print jobs:
●Top (face-down) output bin: This it the default output bin at the top of the product. Print jobs exit
the product face-down into this bin.
●Rear (face-up) output bin: Print jobs exit the product face-up into this bin at the rear of the product.
NOTE You cannot use automatic duplex printing when printing to the rear output bin.
Print to the top output bin
1. Make sure that the rear output bin is closed. If the rear output bin is open, the device will deliver
the print job to that bin.
2. If you are printing on long media, open the top output bin support.
3. From your computer, send the print job to the device.
ENWW Select output bins 73
Print to the rear output bin
NOTE When tray 1 and the rear output bin are used together, they provide a straight-through
paper path for your print job. Using a straight-through paper path can reduce curling.
1. Open the rear output bin.
2. If you are printing on long media, pull out the bin extension.
3. From your computer, send the print job to the device.

5 Device features
This chapter describes how to use some basic device features:
●Use the convenience stapler
●Use job storage features
ENWW 75
Use the convenience stapler
A convenience stapler is mounted to the front, right side of the device.
The convenience stapler operates independently from the control panel and device software, and does
not automatically staple print jobs. The stapler requires no settings and generates no error messages
or status messages.
Staple media
Activate the convenience stapler by inserting media into the stapler.
1. Insert up to 20 sheets of media (80 g/m
2
or 20 lb) into the slot in the stapler door. Insert fewer
sheets to staple if the media weight is heavier than 80 g/m
2
or 20 lb.
CAUTION Do not use the convenience stapler to staple plastic, cardboard, or wood.
Damage to the convenience stapler can result from attempting to staple these materials.
NOTE Exceeding the recommended capacity could result in jams or damage to the stapler.
For information about resolving a stapler jam, see Clear stapler jams.
2. Wait for the stapler to staple the sheets. When it is inserted all the way into the stapler slot, the
media should trigger the stapler mechanism.
3. Remove the stapled media from the slot.
NOTE If you are unable to remove the media after stapling, carefully open the stapler door
and then slide your document out.
76 Chapter 5 Device features ENWW

NOTE The device cannot copy or print in color, but it can scan and send color images.
This chapter addresses the following topics:
●Configure e-mail settings
●Use the Send E-mail screen
●Perform basic e-mail functions
●Use the address book
●Change e-mail settings for the current job
●Scan to a folder
●Scan to a workflow destination
ENWW 109
Configure e-mail settings
Before you can send a document to e-mail, you must configure the device for e-mailing.
NOTE You can also configure the e-mail settings by using the embedded Web server, which
HP recommends. For helpful tips and more about configuring the scan e-mail feature, see the
Embedded Web Server User Guide on the device CD.
For more information on setting up a feature, solving a problem, or discovering how to use this
device, go to www.hp.com/support/LJM3027mfp or www.hp.com/support/LJM3035mfp.
Supported protocols
The HP LaserJet M3027 MFP models support Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The HP LaserJet
M3035 MFP models support SMTP and Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).
SMTP
●SMTP is a set of rules that define the interaction between programs that send and receive e-mail.
In order for the device to send documents to e-mail, it must be connected to a LAN that has a valid
SMTP IP address. The SMTP server must also have Internet access.
●If you are using a LAN connection, contact your system administrator to obtain the IP address for
your SMTP server. If you are connecting through a DSL connection, contact the service provider
to obtain the SMTP server IP address.
LDAP
●LDAP is used to gain access to a database of information. When the device uses LDAP, it searches
a global list of e-mail addresses. As you begin to type the e-mail address, LDAP uses an auto-
complete feature that supplies a list of e-mail addresses that match the characters you type. As
you type additional characters, the list of matching e-mail addresses becomes smaller.
●The device supports LDAP, but a connection to an LDAP server is not required in order for the
device to be able to send to e-mail.
NOTE If you need to change the LDAP settings, you must change them by using the
embedded Web server. For more information, see Use the embedded Web server, or see
the Embedded Web Server User Guide on the device CD.
Configure e-mail server settings
Consult a network administrator or internet service provider (ISP) for the IP address or the name of the
SMTP server. Or, find the IP address from the device control panel (see Use information pages). Then
use the following procedures to manually configure and test the IP address.
Configure the SMTP gateway address
1. From the Home screen, touch Administration.
2. Touch Initial Setup.
3. Touch E-mail Setup, and then touch SMTP Gateway.
110 Chapter 8 Scan and send e-mail ENWW
4. Type the SMTP gateway address, either as an IP address or as a fully qualified domain name. If
you do not know the IP address or domain name, contact the network administrator.
5. Touch OK.
Test the SMTP settings
1. From the Home screen, touch Administration.
2. Touch Initial Setup.
3. Touch E-mail Setup, and then touch Test Send Gateways.
If the configuration is correct, Gateways OK appears on the control-panel display.
If the first test was successful, send an e-mail to yourself by using the digital-send feature. If you receive
the e-mail, you have successfully configured the digital-sending feature.
If you do not receive the e-mail, use these actions to resolve issues with the digital-sending software:
●Print a configuration page. Verify that the SMTP gateway address is correct.
●Make sure that the network is operating correctly. Send an e-mail to yourself from a computer. If
you receive the e-mail, the network is operating correctly. If you do not receive the e-mail, contact
your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).
Find gateways
If you do not know the SMTP gateway address, you can use one of the following methods to find it.
Find the SMTP gateway from the device control panel
1. From the Home screen, touch Administration.
2. Touch Initial Setup.
3. Touch E-mail Setup, and then touch Find Send Gateways.
The touchscreen displays a list of detected SMTP servers.
4. Select the correct SMTP server, and then touch OK.
Find the SMTP gateway from an e-mail program
Because most e-mail programs also use SMTP to send e-mail and LDAP to address e-mail messages,
you might be able to find the hostname of the SMTP gateway and LDAP server by looking at the settings
for your e-mail program.
NOTE The find gateway features might be unable to detect a valid SMTP server on the network
if it uses an internet service provider (ISP). To find the ISP e-mail server address, contact the
ISP.

Perform basic e-mail functions
The device e-mail feature offers the following benefits:
●Sends documents to multiple e-mail addresses, saving time and delivery costs.
●Delivers files in black-and-white or in color. Files can be sent in different file formats that the
recipient can manipulate.
With e-mail, documents are scanned into the device memory and sent to an e-mail address or multiple
addresses as an e-mail attachment. Digital documents can be sent in several graphics formats, such
as .TIFF and .JPG, which allows recipients to manipulate the document file in various programs to meet
their specific needs. Documents arrive in near-original quality, and then can be printed, stored, or
forwarded.
In order to use the e-mail feature, the device needs to be connected to a valid SMTP local area network
that includes Internet access.

ENWW 119
Analog faxing
On the HP LaserJet M3027x or the HP LaserJet M3035xs MFPs, the device can function as a standalone
fax machine.
Connect the fax to a telephone line
When connecting the fax to a telephone line, ensure that the telephone line that is being used for the
fax is a dedicated line that is not used by other devices. In addition, this line should be an analog line
because the fax will not function correctly if it is connected to some digital PBX systems. If you are not
sure whether you have an analog or digital phone line, contact your telecom provider.
NOTE HP recommends using the telephone cord that comes with the device to ensure that the
fax functions correctly.
1. Remove the fax jack cover from the device, and then connect one end of the telephone cord to the
fax jack. Push the connector until it clicks, and then replace the fax jack cover.
2. Connect the other end of the cord to the telephone jack on the wall. Push the connector until it
clicks or until it is securely seated. Because different types of connectors are used in different
countries/regions, the connector might not make an audible click.
Configure and use the fax features
Before you can use the fax features, you must configure them in the control-panel menus. For example,
you need to specify the following information:
●Date and time

Digital fax
Digital faxing is available when you install the optional HP Digital Sending Software. For information
about ordering this software, go to www.hp.com/go/LJM3027_software or www.hp.com/go/
LJM3035_software.
With digital faxing, the device does not need to be connected directly to a phone line. Instead, the device
can send a fax in one of three ways:
●LAN fax sends faxes through a third-party fax provider.
●Microsoft Windows 2000 fax is a fax modem and digital sender module that the computer uses
to operate as a turnkey gateway fax.
●Internet fax uses an Internet fax provider to process faxes. The fax is delivered to a traditional fax
machine or sent to the user’s e-mail.
For complete information about using digital faxing, see the documentation that is provided with the
HP Digital Sending Software.

Using, storing, and monitoring the print cartridge can help ensure high-quality output.
Supplies life
The average cartridge yield is 6,500 pages (for the Q7551A cartridge) or 13,000 pages (for the Q7551X
cartridge), in accordance with ISO/IEC 19752. Actual cartridge yield depends on specific use.
CAUTION EconoMode is a feature that allows the device to use less toner per page. Selecting
this option may extend the life of the toner supply and may reduce cost per page. However, it will
also reduce print quality. The printed image is lighter, but it is adequate for printing drafts or proofs.
HP does not recommend full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, it is possible
that the toner supply will outlast the mechanical parts in the print cartridge. If print quality begins
to degrade under these circumstances, you will need to install a new print cartridge, even if there
may be toner supply remaining in the cartridge.

Clean the device
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the device. Over
time, this buildup can cause print-quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing (see Solve print-
quality problems).
Clean the exterior
Use a soft, damp, lint-free cloth to wipe dust, smudges, and stains off of the exterior of the device.
Clean the scanner glass
Dirty glass, from fingerprints, smudges, hair, and so on, slows down performance and affects the
accuracy of special features such as fit-to-page and copy.
NOTE If streaks or other defects appear only on copies produced using the automatic document
feeder (ADF), clean the scanner strip (step 3). It is not necessary to clean the scanner glass.
1. Open the scanner lid.
2. Clean the glass by using a damp, lint-free cloth.
CAUTION Do not use abrasives, acetone, benzene, ammonia, ethyl alcohol, or carbon
tetrachloride on any part of the device; these can damage the device. Do not place liquids
directly on the glass. They might seep under it and damage the device.
3. Clean the scanner strip by using a damp, lint-free cloth.

Calibrate the scanner
Calibrate the scanner to compensate for offsets in the scanner imaging system (carriage head) for ADF
and flatbed scans. Because of mechanical tolerances, the scanner's carriage head might not read the
position of the image accurately. During the calibration procedure, scanner offset values are calculated
and stored. The offset values are then used when producing scans so that the correct portion of the
document is captured.
Scanner calibration should be carried out only if you notice offset problems with the scanned images.
The scanner is calibrated before it leaves the factory. It needs to be calibrated again only rarely.
1. From the Home screen, touch Administration.
2. Touch Troubleshooting.
3. Touch Calibrate Scanner and then follow the instructions in the onscreen dialog box.

Solve general device problems
Device selects media from the wrong tray.
Cause Solution
The tray selection in the software program might be incorrect. For many software programs, the paper tray selection is found
on the Page Setup menu within the program.
Remove any media in other trays to make the device select
from the correct tray.
For Macintosh computers, use the HP Printer Utility to change
the priority of the tray.
The configured size does not match the size of the media that
is loaded in the tray.
Through the control panel, change the configured size to
match the size of the media that is loaded in the tray.
Device does not pull paper from tray.
Cause Solution
The tray is empty. Load paper in the tray.
The paper guides are set incorrectly. To set the guides correctly, see Load media.
For tray 2 and tray 3, make sure that the leading edge of the
paper stack is even. An uneven edge can prevent the lift plate
from rising.
Paper curls when it exits the device.
Cause Solution
The paper curls when it exits to the top output bin. Open the rear output bin to allow the paper to exit in a straight
path through the device.
Turn over the paper that you are printing on.
Reduce the fusing temperature to reduce the curling. See
Select the correct fuser mode.
150 Chapter 11 Problem solving ENWW
Print job is extremely slow.
Cause Solution
The job might be very complex.
The maximum speed of the device cannot be exceeded even
when more memory is added.
Printing speeds might be automatically reduced when printing
on custom-sized media.
Note: Slower speeds are expected when printing on narrow
paper, when printing from tray 1, or when using the HIGH 2
fuser mode.
Reduce the complexity of the page or try adjusting the print-
quality settings. If this problem occurs frequently, add memory
to the device.
You are printing a PDF or PostScript (PS) file but are using a
PCL device driver.
Try using the PS device driver rather than the PCL device
driver. (You can usually do this from a software program.)
Print job prints on both sides of the paper.
Cause Solution
The device is set for duplexing. See Open the printer drivers to change the setting, or see the
online Help.
Print job contains only one page but the device processes the back side of the page as well (the page comes part of
the way out, and then goes back into the device).
Cause Solution
The device is set for duplexing. Even if the print job contains
only one page, the device also processes the back side.
See Open the printer drivers to change the setting, or see the
online Help.
Do not try to pull the page out of the device before duplexing
is complete. Jamming might result.
Pages print, but are totally blank.
Cause Solution
The sealing tape might still be on the print cartridge. Verify that the sealing tape has been completely removed from
the print cartridge.
The file might have blank pages. Check the file to make sure that it does not contain blank
pages.
The device prints, but the text is wrong, garbled, or incomplete.
Cause Solution
The device cable is loose or defective. Disconnect the device cable and reconnect it. Try a print job
that you know works. If possible, attach the cable and device
to another computer and try a print job that you know works.
Finally, try a new cable.
ENWW Solve general device problems 151
The device prints, but the text is wrong, garbled, or incomplete.
Cause Solution
The wrong driver was selected in the software. Check the software device selection menu to make sure that
an HP LaserJet M3027/M3035 device is selected.
The software program is malfunctioning. Try printing a job from another program.
The device does not respond when you select Print in the software.
Cause Solution
The device is out of media. Add media.
The device might be in the manual-feed mode. Change the device from manual-feed mode.
The cable between the computer and the device is not
connected correctly.
Disconnect and reconnect the cable.
The device cable is defective. If possible, attach the cable to another computer and print a
job that you know works. You might also try using a different
cable.
The wrong device was selected in the software. Check the software device selection menu to make sure that
an HP LaserJet M3027/M3035 device is selected.
The device might have a jam. Clear any jams, paying careful attention to the duplexer area
(if your model has a duplexer). See Clear jams.
Verify that the packing tape, cardboard, and plastic shipping
locks have been removed from the device.
Verify that you are using supported media. See Select print
media.
Verify that the media is loaded correctly. See Load media.
The software for the device is not configured for the device
port.
Check the software device selection menu to make sure that
it is using the correct port. If the computer has more than one
port, make sure that the device is attached to the correct one.
The device is on a network and is not receiving a signal. Check cable connections. Reinstall the printing software. Print
a job that you know works.
Print a configuration page and verify that the IP address is
correct.
Clear any stopped jobs from the print queue.
The device is not receiving power. If no lights are on, check the power cord connections. Check
the power switch. Check the power source.
The device is malfunctioning. Check the control-panel display for messages and lights to
determine if the device is indicating an error. Note any
message and see Control-panel messages.
152 Chapter 11 Problem solving ENWW
Control-panel message types
Four types of control-panel messages can indicate the status of or problems with the device.
Message type Description
Status messages Status messages reflect the current state of the device. They inform you of normal device operation
and require no interaction to clear them. They change as the state of the device changes. Whenever
the device is ready, not busy, and has no pending warning messages, the status message Ready
appears if the device is online.
Warning messages Warning messages inform you of data and print errors. These messages typically alternate with
the Ready or status messages and remain until you touch OK. Some warning messages are clearable.
If Clearable Warnings is set to Job on the device Device Behavior menu, the next print job clears
these messages.
Error messages Error messages communicate that some action must be performed, such as adding paper or clearing
a jam.
Some error messages are auto-continuable. If Auto Continue is set on the menus, the device will
continue normal operation after an auto-continuable error message appears for 10 seconds.
NOTE Pressing any button during the 10-second auto-continuable error message overrides
the auto-continue feature, and the button function takes precedence. For example, pressing
the Stop button pauses printing and offers the option to cancel the print job.
Critical-error messages Critical error messages inform you of a device failure. Some of these messages can be cleared by
turning the device off and then on. These messages are not affected by the Auto Continue setting.
If a critical error persists, service is required.

Common causes of jams
The device is jammed.
1
Cause Solution
The media does not meet specifications. Use only media that meets HP specifications. See Media
considerations.
A component is installed incorrectly. Verify that the print cartridge is correctly installed.
You are using media that has already passed through a device
or copier.
Do not use media that has been previously printed on or
copied.
An input tray is loaded incorrectly. Remove any excess media from the input tray. Make sure that
the stack is below the maximum stack height mark in the tray.
See Load media.
The media is skewed. The input-tray guides are not adjusted correctly. Adjust them
so they hold the stack firmly in place without bending it.
The media is binding or sticking together. Remove the media, flex it, rotate it 180°, or flip it over. Reload
the media into the input tray.
The media is removed before it settles into the output bin. Reset the device. Wait until the page completely settles in the
output bin before removing it.
During two-sided printing, you removed the paper before the
second side of the document was printed.
Reset the device and print the document again. Wait until the
page completely settles in the output bin before removing it.
The media is in poor condition. Replace the media.
The internal tray rollers are not picking up the media. If the media is heavier than 120 g/m
2
(32 lb), it might not be
picked from the tray.
The media has rough or jagged edges. Replace the media.
The media is perforated or embossed. Perforated or embossed media does not separate easily. Feed
single sheets from tray 1.
Device supply items have reached the end of their useful life. Check the device control panel for messages prompting you
to replace supplies, or print a supplies status page to verify the
remaining life of the supplies. See Use information pages.
Paper was not stored correctly. Replace the paper in the trays. Paper should be stored in the
original packaging in a controlled environment.
Not all device packing material was removed. Verify that the packing tape, cardboard, and plastic shipping
locks have been removed from the device.

a few minutes.
ENWW Clear jams 169
2. Open the plate, and then slowly pull the media out of the device. Be careful to not tear the media.
CAUTION Avoid spilling loose toner. Use a dry, lint-free cloth, to clean any toner that might
have fallen into the device. If loose toner falls into the device, it might cause temporary
problems with print quality. Loose toner should clear from the paper path after a few pages
are printed. If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in
cold water. (Hot water sets toner into fabric.)
3. Replace the print cartridge, and then close the front door.
If a jam message persists, there is still media in the device. Look for media in other locations.
Clear jams from the output-bin areas
NOTE If media is jammed in the top output area, but most of the media is still inside the device,
it is best to remove it through the rear door.
1. Open the rear output bin.
170 Chapter 11 Problem solving ENWW
2. Push down on the bin door to unclip the door stops, and then let the door drop open.
3. Grasp both sides of the media, and slowly pull the media out of the device. (There might be loose
toner on the media. Be careful not to spill it on yourself or into the device.)
NOTE If media is difficult to remove, try opening the front door and removing the print
cartridge to release pressure on the media.
4. Close the rear bin.
5. Open and close the front door to clear the jam message.
If a jam message persists, there is still media in the device. Look for media in other locations.
ENWW Clear jams 171
Clear jams from the duplexer
1. Remove tray 2 from the device.
2. Push the green button on the top right front of the tray 2 opening to access the duplex paper path.
3. Reach in and pull out the jammed paper.
4. Push the bottom of the duplex access plate back up until it clicks into place on both sides (both
sides need to be engaged).
172 Chapter 11 Problem solving ENWW
5. Reinstall tray 2.
Solve repeated jams
If jams occur frequently, try the following actions:
●Check all the jam locations. A piece of media might be stuck somewhere in the device.
●Check that media is correctly loaded in the trays, that the trays are correctly adjusted for the loaded
media size, and that the trays are not overfilled.
●Check that all trays and paper-handling accessories are completely inserted into the device. (If a
tray is open during a print job, a jam might occur.)
●Check that all covers and doors are closed. (If a cover or door is open during a print job, a jam
might occur.)
●Try printing to a different output bin.
●The sheets might be sticking together. Try bending the stack to separate each sheet. Do not fan
the stack.
●If you are printing from tray 1, try feeding fewer sheets of media at a time.
●If you are printing small sizes (such as index cards), make sure that the media is oriented correctly
in the tray.
●Turn over the media stack in the tray. Also, try rotating the stack 180°.
●Try rotating media to feed through the device from a different orientation.
●Check the media quality. Do not use damaged or irregular media.
●Use only media that meets HP specifications. See Media considerations.
●Do not use media that has already been used in a device or copier. Do not print on both sides of
envelopes, transparencies, vellum, or labels.
●Do not use media with staples or media that has had the staple removed. Staples can damage the
device and can void warranty.
●Make sure that the power supplied to the device is steady and meets device specifications. See
Specifications.
ENWW Clear jams 173
●Clean the device. See Clean the device.
●Contact an HP-authorized service or support provider to perform routine device maintenance. See

Solve print-quality problems
This section helps you define print-quality problems and what to do to correct them. Often print-quality
problems can be handled easily by making sure that the device is correctly maintained, using print media
that meets HP specifications, or running a cleaning page.
Print-quality problems associated with media
Some print-quality problems arise from the use of inappropriate media.
●Use media that meets HP specifications. See Media considerations.
●The surface of the media is too smooth. Use media that meets HP specifications. See Media
considerations.
●The moisture content is uneven, too high, or too low. Use media from a different source or from an
unopened ream.
●Some areas of the media reject toner. Use media from a different source or from an unopened
ream.
●The letterhead you are using is printed on rough media. Use a smoother, xerographic media. If this
solves your problem, ask the supplier of your letterhead to use media that meets the specifications
for this device. See Media considerations.
●The media is excessively rough. Use a smoother, xerographic media.
●The driver setting is incorrect. To change the media type setting, see Control print jobs.
●The media that you are using is too heavy for the media type setting that you selected, and the
toner is not fusing to the media.
Print-quality problems associated with the environment
If the device is operating in excessively humid or dry conditions, verify that the printing environment is
within specifications. See Operating environment.
Print-quality problems associated with jams
Make sure that all sheets are cleared from the paper path. See Clear jams.
●If the device recently jammed, print two to three pages to clean the device.
●If the sheets do not pass through the fuser and cause image defects on subsequent documents,
print three pages to clean the device. If the problem persists, print and process a cleaning page.
See Clean the device.
Image defect examples
Use the examples in this image-defect table to determine which print-quality problem you are
experiencing, and then see the corresponding reference pages to resolve the problem. These examples
identify the most common print-quality problems. If you still have problems after trying the suggested
remedies, contact HP Customer Support.

Random image repetition
If an image that appears at the top of the page (in solid black) repeats further down the page (in a gray
field), the toner might not have been completely erased from the last job. (The repeated image might
be lighter or darker than the field it appears in.)
●Change the tone (darkness) of the field that the repeated image appears in.
●Change the order in which the images are printed. For example, have the lighter image at the top
of the page, and the darker image farther down the page.
●From your software program, rotate the whole page 180° to print the lighter image first.
●If the defect occurs later in a print job, turn the device off for 10 minutes, and then turn it on to

Solve fax problems
NOTE For more information about solving fax problems, see the HP LaserJet Analog Fax
Accessory 300 User Guide.
Solve sending problems
Faxes quit during sending.
Cause Solution
The fax machine to which you are sending might be
malfunctioning.
Call the recipient to make sure that the receiving fax machine
is turned on and ready to receive faxes, or try sending to
another fax machine.
Your telephone line might not be working, or the line might be
experiencing interference.
Disconnect the fax cable from the telephone jack, and then
connect a telephone. Make a phone call to ensure that the
telephone line is working.
Try using a lower baud rate by adjusting the Maximum Baud
Rate setting in the Administration menu. See Initial Setup
menu.
The device fax is receiving faxes but is not sending them.
Cause Solution
If the device is on a PBX system, the PBX system might be
generating a dial tone that the fax cannot detect.
Disable the detect dial tone setting. See the fax guide for
information about changing the setting.
There might be a poor telephone connection. Resend the fax later.
The fax machine to which you are sending might be
malfunctioning.
Call the recipient to make sure that the receiving fax machine
is turned on and ready to receive faxes, or try sending to
another fax machine.
Your telephone line might not be working. Disconnect the fax cable from the telephone jack, and then
connect a telephone. Make a phone call to ensure that the
telephone line is working.
Outgoing fax calls keep dialing.
Cause Solution
The fax automatically redials a fax number if either the Redial
on Busy feature or the Redial on No Answer feature is enabled.
Disable the Redial on Busy and Redial on No Answer features.
See the fax guide for information about changing the settings.
194 Chapter 11 Problem solving ENWW
Faxes you send are not arriving at the receiving fax machine.
Cause Solution
The receiving fax machine might be turned off or might have
an error condition, such as being out of paper.
Call the recipient to make sure that the fax machine is turned
on and ready to receive faxes.
A fax might be stored in memory because it is waiting to redial
a busy number, or there are other jobs ahead of it waiting to
be sent.
If a fax job is in memory for either of these reasons, an entry
for the job appears in the fax log. Print the fax activity log (see
the fax guide), and check the Result column for jobs with a
Pending designation.
NOTE If the fax is sending very slowly, see "Faxes are transmitting or being received very
slowly" in Initial Setup menu.
Solve receiving problems
Incoming fax calls are not being answered by the fax (no fax detected).
Cause Solution
The rings-to-answer setting might not be set correctly. Check the rings-to-answer setting. See the fax guide for
information about changing the setting.
The telephone cord might not be connected properly, or the
telephone cord is not working.
Check the installation. Make sure you are using the telephone
cord that came with the device.
The telephone line might not be working. Disconnect the fax cable from the telephone jack, and then
connect a telephone. Make a phone call to ensure that the
telephone line is working.
A voice-messaging service might be interfering with the ability
to answer calls.
Do one of the following:
●Discontinue the messaging service.
●Get a telephone line dedicated to fax calls.
●Decrease the rings-to-answer setting for the fax to a
number less than the rings-to-answer for the voice mail.
See the fax guide for information about changing the
setting.
Faxes are transmitting or being received very slowly.
Cause Solution
You might be sending or receiving a very complex fax, such as
one with many graphics.
Complex faxes take longer to be sent or received.
The receiving fax machine might have a slow modem speed. The device fax only sends the fax at the fastest modem speed
the receiving fax machine can use.
ENWW Solve fax problems 195
Faxes are transmitting or being received very slowly.
Cause Solution
The resolution at which the fax was sent or is being received
is very high. A higher resolution typically results in better
quality, but also requires a longer transmission time.
If you are receiving the fax, call and ask the sender to decrease
the resolution and resend the fax. If you are sending, decrease
the resolution or change the Page Content mode setting. See
the fax guide for information about changing the settings.
A poor telephone-line connection is forcing the device fax and
the sending or receiving fax machine to slow down the
transmission to adjust for errors.
Cancel and resend the fax. Have the telephone company
check the telephone line.
Faxes are not printing at the device.
Cause Solution
There is no media in the input trays. Load media. Any faxes received while the input trays are empty
are stored and will print after the trays have been refilled.
The Schedule Printing of Faxes mode is enabled. Faxes will
not print until it is disabled
Disable the Schedule Printing of Faxes mode. See the fax
guide for information about changing the setting.
The device toner level is low, or it has run out of toner.
The device stops printing as soon as it is low on toner or runs
out of toner. Any faxes received are stored in memory and are
printed after the toner has been replaced.
Replace the print cartridge.

Hewlett-Packard limited warranty statement
HP PRODUCT DURATION OF LIMITED WARRANTY
HP LaserJet M3027, M3027x, M3035, and M3035xs One-year on-site warranty
HP warrants to you, the end-user customer, that HP hardware and accessories will be free from defects in materials
and workmanship after the date of purchase, for the period specified above. If HP receives notice of such defects
during the warranty period, HP will, at its option, either repair or replace products which prove to be defective.
Replacement products may be either new or equivalent in performance to new.
HP warrants to you that HP software will not fail to execute its programming instructions after the date of purchase,
for the period specified above, due to defects in material and workmanship when properly installed and used. If
HP receives notice of such defects during the warranty period, HP will replace software which does not execute
its programming instructions due to such defects.
HP does not warrant that the operation of HP products will be uninterrupted or error free. If HP is unable, within a
reasonable time, to repair or replace any product to a condition as warranted, you will be entitled to a refund of
the purchase price upon prompt return of the product.
HP products may contain remanufactured parts equivalent to new in performance or may have been subject to
incidental use.
Warranty does not apply to defects resulting from (a) improper or inadequate maintenance or calibration, (b)
software, interfacing, parts or supplies not supplied by HP, (c) unauthorized modification or misuse, (d) operation
outside of the published environmental specifications for the product, or (e) improper site preparation or
maintenance.
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, THE ABOVE WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND NO OTHER
WARRANTY OR CONDITION, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, IS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED AND HP
SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY,
SATISFACTORY QUALITY, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Some countries/regions, states or
provinces do not allow limitations on the duration of an implied warranty, so the above limitation or exclusion might
not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you might also have other rights that vary from
country/region to country/region, state to state, or province to province. HP's limited warranty is valid in any country/
region or locality where HP has a support presence for this product and where HP has marketed this product. The
level of warranty service you receive may vary according to local standards. HP will not alter form, fit or function
of the product to make it operate in a country/region for which it was never intended to function for legal or regulatory
reasons.
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, THE REMEDIES IN THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT ARE YOUR
SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. EXCEPT AS INDICATED ABOVE, IN NO EVENT WILL HP OR ITS
SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR LOSS OF DATA OR FOR DIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL
ENWW Hewlett-Packard limited warranty statement 209
(INCLUDING LOST PROFIT OR DATA), OR OTHER DAMAGE, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR
OTHERWISE. Some countries/regions, states or provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
THE WARRANTY TERMS CONTAINED IN THIS STATEMENT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT LAWFULLY
PERMITTED, DO NOT EXCLUDE, RESTRICT OR MODIFY AND ARE IN ADDITION TO THE MANDATORY
STATUTORY RIGHTS APPLICABLE TO THE SALE OF THIS PRODUCT TO YOU.
Customer self repair warranty service
HP products are designed with many Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and
allow for greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If during the diagnosis period, HP
identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the use of a CSR part, HP will ship that part directly to
you for replacement. There are two categories of CSR parts: 1) Parts for which customer self repair is
mandatory. If you request HP to replace these parts, you will be charged for the travel and labor costs
of this service. 2) Parts for which customer self repair is optional. These parts are also designed for
Customer Self Repair. If, however, you require that HP replace them for you, this may be done at no
additional charge under the type of warranty service designated for your product.
Based on availability and where geography permits, CSR parts will be shipped for next business day
delivery. Same-day or four-hour delivery may be offered at an additional charge where geography
permits. If assistance is required, you can call the HP Technical Support Center and a technician will
help you over the phone. HP specifies in the materials shipped with a replacement CSR part whether
a defective part must be returned to HP. In cases where it is required to return the defective part to HP,
you must ship the defective part back to HP within a defined period of time, normally five (5) business
days. The defective part must be returned with the associated documentation in the provided shipping
material. Failure to return the defective part may result in HP billing you for the replacement. With a
customer self repair, HP will pay all shipping and part return costs and determine the courier/carrier to
be used.
Print cartridge limited warranty statement
This HP product is warranted to be free from defects in materials and workmanship.
This warranty does not apply to products that (a) have been refilled, refurbished, remanufactured or
tampered with in any way, (b) experience problems resulting from misuse, improper storage, or
operation outside of the published environmental specifications for the device product or (c) exhibit wear
from ordinary use.
To obtain warranty service, please return the product to place of purchase (with a written description of
the problem and print samples) or contact HP customer support. At HP's option, HP will either replace
products that prove to be defective or refund your purchase price.
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, THE ABOVE WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE AND NO
OTHER WARRANTY OR CONDITION, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, IS EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED AND HP SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF
MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL HP OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE
LIABLE FOR DIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL (INCLUDING LOST PROFIT OR
DATA), OR OTHER DAMAGE, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE.

HP maintenance agreements
HP has several types of maintenance agreements that meet a wide range of support needs.
Maintenance agreements are not part of the standard warranty. Support services may vary by area.
Check with your local HP dealer to determine the services available to you.
On-site service agreements
To provide you with the level of support best suited to your needs, HP has on-site service agreements
with a selection of response times.
Next-day on-site service
This agreement provides support by the next working day following a service request. Extended
coverage hours and extended travel beyond HP’s designated service zones are available on most on-
site agreements (for additional charges).
Weekly (volume) on-site service
This agreement provides scheduled weekly on-site visits for organizations with many HP products. This
agreement is designated for sites using 25 or more workstation products, including devices, plotters,
computers, and disk drives.
Repacking the device
If HP Customer Care determines that your device needs to be returned to HP for repair, follow the steps
below to repack the device before shipping it.
CAUTION Shipping damage as a result of inadequate packing is the customer’s responsibility.
1. Remove and retain any DIMMs cards that you have purchased and installed in the device. Do not
remove the DIMM that came with the device.
CAUTION Static electricity can damage DIMMs. When handling DIMMs, either wear an
antistatic wrist strap, or frequently touch the surface of the DIMM antistatic package and
then touch bare metal on the device. To remove the DIMMs, see Install memory.
2. Remove and retain the print cartridge.
CAUTION It is extremely important to remove the print cartridge before shipping the
device. A print cartridge that remains in the device during shipping will leak and entirely
cover the device engine and other parts with toner.
To prevent damage to the print cartridge, avoid touching the roller on it, and store the print
cartridge in its original packing material or so that it is not exposed to light.
3. Remove and retain the power cable, interface cable, and optional accessories.
4. If possible, include print samples and 50 to 100 sheets of paper or other print media that did not
print correctly.
5. In the U.S., call HP Customer Care to request new packing material. In other areas, use the original
packing material, if possible. Hewlett-Packard recommends insuring the equipment for shipment.

Safety statements
Laser safety
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 device 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
device 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 may result in exposure to hazardous radiation.

E Working with memory and print server
cards
This section explains the device memory features and provides steps for expansion.
●Overview
●Install memory
●Check DIMM installation
●Save resources (permanent resources)
●Enable memory for Windows
●Use HP Jetdirect print server cards
ENWW 231
Overview
One dual inline memory module (DIMM) slot is available for upgrading the device with the following
items:
●More memory—DIMMs are available in 64, 128, 256, and 512 MB.
●Other DIMM-based printer languages and printer options.
The device uses 100-pin 133 MHz DDR memory modules. Extended data output (EDO) DIMMs are not
supported.
For ordering information, see Order parts, accessories, and supplies.
NOTE Single inline memory modules (SIMMs) used in previous HP LaserJet printers are not
compatible with the device.
The device also has one EIO slot for expanding the device networking capabilities. The EIO slot can be
used to upgrade the device with an additional network connection, such as a wireless print server,
network card, or a connectivity card for a serial or AppleTalk connection.
To find out how much memory is installed in the device, or to find out what is installed in the EIO slots,
print a configuration page. See Use information pages.
NOTE If memory problems occur when you are printing complex graphics, you can make more
memory available by removing downloaded fonts, style sheets, and macros from device memory.
Reducing the complexity of a print job from within a program can help avoid memory problems.
232 Appendix E Working with memory and print server cards ENWW
Install memory
You might want to add more memory to the device if you often print complex graphics, print PostScript
(PS) documents, or use many downloaded fonts. Added memory also gives you more flexibility in
supporting job-storage features, such as quick copying.
Install device memory
CAUTION Static electricity can damage DIMMs. When handling DIMMs, either wear an
antistatic wrist strap or frequently touch the surface of the DIMM antistatic package, then touch
bare metal on the device.
The HP LaserJet M3027/M3035 devices come with one DIMM slot. If desired, you can replace a DIMM
installed in the slot with a higher memory DIMM.
If you have not already done so, print a configuration page to find out how much memory is installed in
the device before adding more memory. See Use information pages.
1. After the configuration page has printed, turn the device off and disconnect the power cord.
2. Disconnect all interface cables.
ENWW Install memory 233
3. Remove the right side panel by sliding it towards the rear of the device until the side slides from
the device.
4. Open the access door by pulling on the metal tab.
5. Remove the DIMM from the antistatic package.
CAUTION To reduce the possibility of damage caused by static electricity, always wear
an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap or touch the surface of the antistatic package
before handling DIMMs.
234 Appendix E Working with memory and print server cards ENWW
6. Hold the DIMM by the edges, and align the notches on the DIMM with the DIMM slot. (Check that
the locks on each side of the DIMM slot are open.)
7. Press the DIMM straight into the slot, and press firmly. Make sure the locks on each side of the
DIMM snap into place.
NOTE To remove a DIMM, first release the locks.
ENWW Install memory 235
8. Close the access door, and press firmly until it snaps into place.
9. To replace the right side panel, line up the alignment arrows and slide the panel toward the front
of the device until it latches into place.
10. Reconnect the interface cable(s) and the power cord.
11. Turn the device on.
236 Appendix E Working with memory and print server cards ENWW
Check DIMM installation
After installing the DIMM, make sure that the installation was successful.
Verify that DIMM is installed correctly
1. Turn the device on. Check that the Ready light is illuminated after the device has gone through the
startup sequence. If an error message appears, a DIMM might have been incorrectly installed.
See Control-panel messages.
2. Print a configuration page (see Use information pages).
3. Check the memory section on the configuration page and compare it to the configuration page that
was printed before the memory installation. If the amount of memory has not increased, the DIMM
might not be installed correctly, or the DIMM might be defective. Repeat the installation procedure.
If necessary, install a different DIMM.
NOTE If you installed a device language (personality), check the "Installed Personalities and
Options" section on the configuration page. This area should list the new device language.
Save resources (permanent resources)
Utilities or jobs that you download to the device sometimes include resources (for example, fonts,
macros, or patterns). Resources that are internally marked as permanent remain in the device memory
until you turn the device power off.
Use the following guidelines if you use the page description language (PDL) ability to mark resources
as permanent. For technical details, see an appropriate PDL reference for PCL or PS.
●Mark resources as permanent only when it is absolutely necessary that they remain in memory
while the device power is turned on.
●Send permanent resources to the device only at the beginning of a print job and not while the device
is printing.
NOTE Overusing permanent resources or downloading them while the device is printing might
affect device performance or the ability to print complex pages.
ENWW Check DIMM installation 237
