dots. HP laser paper is designed to withstand this extreme heat. Using inkjet paper not designed for this
technology could damage your printer.
Media type Do Do not
Envelopes Store envelopes flat.
Use envelopes where the seam
extends all the way to the corner of
the envelope.
Use peel-off adhesive strips that
are approved for use in laser
printers.
Do not use envelopes that are
wrinkled, nicked, stuck together, or
otherwise damaged.
Do not use envelopes that have
clasps, snaps, windows, or coated
linings.
Do not use self-stick adhesives or
other synthetic materials.
Labels Use only labels that have no
exposed backing between them.
Use Labels that lie flat.
Use only full sheets of labels.
Do not use labels that have wrinkles
or bubbles, or are damaged.
Do not print partial sheets of labels.
Transparencies Use only transparencies that are
approved for use in laser printers.

Tray 1
Tray 1 is accessed from the front of the printer.
Media guides ensure that the media is correctly fed into the printer and that the print is not skewed
(crooked on the media). When loading media, adjust the media guides to match the width of the media
that you are using.
ENWW Load trays 37
Tray 2
Media guides ensure that the media feeds correctly into the printer and that the print is not skewed. Tray
2 has side and rear media guides. When loading media, adjust the media guides to match the length
and width of the media that you are using.
NOTE: When you add new media, make sure that you remove all of the media from the input tray and
straighten the stack of new media. This reduces jams by preventing multiple sheets of media from
feeding through the printer at one time.
Load A6-size paper
When loading A6-size paper, adjust the length by sliding forward only the center panel of the rear media
guide.
38 Chapter 6 Paper and print media ENWW
Manual feed
You can use manual feed when printing mixed media. For example, you can use manual feed to print
an envelope, then a letter, then an envelope, and so on. Load envelopes in Tray 1 and load letterhead
into Tray 2.
To print using manual feed, open the printer Properties or Printer Setup, and then select Manual Feed
(tray 1) from the Source Tray drop-down list. After you have enabled manual feed, press the Go button
to print.

pane.
ENWW Configure trays 39
Use paper output options
The product has two output locations: the top (standard) output bin and the straight-through paper path
(rear output).
Print to the top (standard) output bin
The top output bin collects paper face-down, and in the correct order. The top output bin should be used
for most print jobs, including transparencies. To use the top output bin, be sure that the straight-through
paper path is closed. To avoid jams, do not open or close the straight-through paper path while the
product is printing.
40 Chapter 6 Paper and print media ENWW
Print to the straight-through paper path (rear output)
The product always uses the straight-through paper path if it is open. Paper exits face-up, with the last
page on top (reverse order).
Printing from Tray 1 to the rear output provides the straightest path. Opening the straight-through paper
path might improve performance with the following paper types:
Envelopes
Labels
Small custom-size paper
Postcards
Paper heavier than 120 g/m

EconoMode
This product has an EconoMode option for printing drafts of documents. Using EconoMode can use
less toner and decrease the cost per page. However, using EconoMode can also reduce print quality.
HP does not recommend full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, the toner supply
might 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 is toner supply remaining in
the cartridge.
Enable or disable EconoMode in any of these ways:
In the embedded Web server (network model only), open the Settings tab and select the PCL

Common causes of jams
Many jams are caused by using paper that does not meet HP specifications. For complete paper
specifications for all HP LaserJet products, see the HP LaserJet Printer Family Print Media Guide. This
guide is available at www.hp.com/support/ljpaperguide.
The product is jammed.
1
Cause Solution
The paper does not meet specifications. Use only paper that meets HP specifications. See Paper and
print media on page 29.
A component is installed incorrectly. Verify that the print cartridge is correctly installed.
You are using paper that has already passed through a product
or copier.
Do not use paper that has been previously printed on or copied.
A tray is loaded incorrectly. Remove any excess paper from the tray. Make sure that the
stack is below the maximum stack height mark in the tray. See
Load trays on page 36.
The paper is skewed. The tray guides are not adjusted correctly. Adjust them so they
hold the stack firmly in place without bending it.
The paper is binding or sticking together. Remove the paper, flex it, rotate it 180°, or flip it over. Reload
the paper into the tray.
NOTE: Do not fan paper. Fanning can create static
electricity, which can cause paper to stick together.
The paper is removed before it settles into the output bin. Reset the product. 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 product and print the document again. Wait until the
page completely settles in the output bin before removing it.
The paper is in poor condition. Replace the paper.
The internal rollers from the tray are not picking up the paper. Remove the top sheet of paper. If the paper is too heavy, it
might not be picked from the tray.
The paper has rough or jagged edges. Replace the paper.
The paper is perforated or embossed. Perforated or embossed paper does not separate easily. Feed
single sheets from Tray 1.
Product supply items have reached the end of their useful life. Check the product control panel for messages prompting you
to replace supplies, or print a supplies status page to verify the
remaining life of the supplies. See Print the information pages
on page 56.
Paper was not stored correctly. Replace the paper in the trays. Paper should be stored in the
original packaging in a controlled environment.

Solve print-quality problems
You can prevent most print-quality problems by following these guidelines.
Configure the trays for the correct paper-type setting. See Configure trays on page 39.
Use paper that meets HP specifications. See Paper and print media on page 29.
Clean the product as necessary. See Clean the paper path on page 67.
Print-quality problems associated with paper
Some print-quality problems arise from using paper that does not meet HP specifications.
The surface of the paper is too smooth.
The moisture content of the paper is uneven, too high, or too low. Use paper from a different source
or from an unopened ream.
Some areas of the paper reject toner. Use paper from a different source or from an unopened ream.
The letterhead you are using is printed on rough paper. Use a smoother, xerographic paper. If this
solves your problem, ask the supplier of your letterhead to use paper that meets HP specifications.
The paper is excessively rough. Use a smoother, xerographic paper.
The paper is too heavy for the paper-type setting that you selected, so the toner is not fusing to
the paper.
For complete paper specifications for all HP LaserJet products, see the HP LaserJet Printer Family Print
Media Guide. This guide is available at www.hp.com/support/ljpaperguide.
Print-quality problems associated with the environment
If the product is operating in excessively humid or dry conditions, verify that the printing environment is
within specifications. See Operating environment on page 120.
Print-quality problems associated with jams
Make sure that all sheets are cleared from the paper path.
If the product recently jammed, print two to three pages to clean the paper path.
If the sheets do not pass through the fuser and cause image defects on subsequent documents,
print two to three pages to clean the paper path. If the problem persists, print and process a cleaning
page. See Clean the paper path on page 67.

Image defect examples
This section provides information about identifying and correcting print defects.
NOTE: If these steps do not correct the problem, contact an HP-authorized dealer or service
representative.
Light print or faded
The print cartridge is nearing end of life.
Redistribute the toner to extend the life.
The media might not meet Hewlett-Packard's media
specifications (for example, the media is too moist or too
rough).
If the whole page is light, the print density adjustment is
too light or EconoMode might be turned on. Adjust the
print density, and disable EconoMode in the printer
Properties.
Toner specks
The media might not meet Hewlett-Packard's media
specifications (for example, the media is too moist or too
rough).
The printer might need to be cleaned.
The print cartridge might be defective.
Dropouts
A single sheet of media might be defective. Try reprinting
the job.
The media moisture content is uneven or the media has
moist spots on its surface. Try printing with new media.
The media lot is bad. The manufacturing processes can
cause some areas to reject toner. Try a different type or
brand of media.
The print cartridge might be defective.
96 Chapter 10 Solve problems ENWW
Vertical lines
The photosensitive drum inside the print cartridge has probably
been scratched. Install a new HP print cartridge.
Gray background
Change the media to a lighter basis weight.
Check the printer's environment. Very dry (low humidity)
conditions can increase the amount of background
shading.
The density setting might be too high. Adjust the density
setting.
Install a new HP print cartridge.
Toner smear
If toner smears appear on the leading edge of the media,
the media guides might be dirty. Wipe the media guides
with a dry, lint-free cloth.
Check the media type and quality.
The fuser temperature might be too low. In your printer
driver, make sure the appropriate media type is selected.
Try installing a new HP print cartridge.
Loose toner
The fuser temperature might be too low. In your printer
driver, make sure the appropriate media type is selected.
Clean the inside of the printer.
Check the media type and quality.
In your printer driver, make sure the appropriate media
type is selected.
Plug the printer directly into an AC outlet instead of into a
power strip.
ENWW Solve print-quality problems 97
Vertical repetitive defects
The print cartridge might be damaged. If a repetitive mark
occurs at the same spot on the page, install a new
HP print cartridge.
The internal parts might have toner on them. If the defects
occur on the back of the page, the problem will probably
correct itself after a few more printed pages.
In your printer driver, make sure the appropriate media
type is selected.
Misformed characters
If characters are improperly formed, producing hollow
images, the media stock might be too slick. Try a different
media.
If characters are improperly formed, producing a wavy
effect, the printer might need service. Print a configuration
page. If the characters are improperly formed, contact an

Verify that the network cabling, connections, and router configurations are correct. Verify that the
network cable lengths meet network specifications.
2. Are your network cables connected properly?
Make sure that the product is attached to the network using the appropriate port and cable. Check
each cable connection to make sure it is secure and in the right place. If the problem continues,
try a different cable or ports on the hub or transceiver. The amber activity light and the green link
status light next to the port connection on the back of the product should be lit.
3. Are the link speed and duplex settings set correctly?
Hewlett-Packard recommends leaving this setting in automatic mode (the default setting). See Link
speed setting on page 27.
4. Can you "ping" the product?
Use the command prompt to ping the product from your computer. For example:
ping 192.168.45.39
Ensure that the ping displays round-trip times.
If you are able to ping the product, verify that the IP address configuration for the product is correct
on the computer. If it is correct, delete and then add the product again.
If the ping command failed, verify that the network hubs are on, and then verify that the network
settings, the product, and the computer are all configured for the same network.
5. Have any software applications been added to the network?
Make sure they are compatible and that they are installed correctly with the correct printer drivers.
6. Are other users able to print?
The problem may be workstation-specific. Check the workstation network drivers, printer drivers,

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.

Environmental product stewardship program
Protecting the environment
Hewlett-Packard Company is committed to providing quality products in an environmentally sound
manner. This product has been designed with several attributes to minimize impacts on our environment.
Ozone production
This product generates no appreciable ozone gas (O
3
).
Power consumption
Power usage drops significantly while in Ready mode, which saves natural resources and saves money
without affecting the high performance of this product. To determine the ENERGY STAR® qualification
status for this product, see the Product Data Sheet or Specifications Sheet. Qualified products are also
listed at:
www.hp.com/go/energystar
Toner consumption
EconoMode uses less toner, which might extend the life of the print cartridge.
Paper use
This product’s manual duplex feature (two-sided printing) and N-up printing (multiple pages printed on
one page) capability can reduce paper usage and the resulting demands on natural resources.
Plastics
Plastic parts over 25 grams are marked according to international standards that enhance the ability to
identify plastics for recycling purposes at the end of the product’s life.
HP LaserJet print supplies
It’s easy to return and recycle your empty HP LaserJet print cartridges—free of charge—with HP Planet
Partners. Multilingual program information and instructions are included in every new HP LaserJet print
cartridge and supplies package. You help reduce the toll on the environment further when you return
multiple cartridges together rather than separately.
HP is committed to providing inventive, high-quality products and services that are environmentally
sound, from product design and manufacturing to distribution, customer use, and recycling. When you
participate in the HP Planet Partners program, we ensure your HP LaserJet print cartridges are recycled
properly, processing them to recover plastics and metals for new products and diverting millions of tons
of waste from landfills. Please note that the cartridge will not be returned to you. Thank you for being
environmentally responsible!
NOTE: Use the return label to return original HP LaserJet print cartridges only. Please do not use this
label for HP inkjet cartridges, non-HP cartridges, refilled or remanufactured cartridges, or warranty
returns. For information about recycling your HP inkjet cartridges, please go to www.hp.com/recycle.

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.
