Figure HP LaserJet printer dimensions. The printer control panel has three lights and two buttons. These lights produce patterns that identify printer status. The formatter switch performs the correct function, based on the state of the printer, when either button is pressed.

The printers accept a variety of media. Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors that affect printer performance and output quality. Media should conform to the guidelines in the User Guide. Media that does not meet HP guidelines might cause poor print quality, increased media jams, or premature wear on the printer, which might require printer repair.

Table Media sizes. NOTE Narrow and heavy media can cause the printer to print more slowly. HP LaserJet printers produce documents that have excellent print quality. Paper must be of good quality and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, holes, and curled or bent edges. Check the label on the paper package for details about the type of paper such as bond or recycled.

Setting media types on page Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams. Never use a sheet of labels that has already been sent through the printer. 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 on the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors:. Envelopes that trap air may cause problems. Store envelopes flat.

If air is trapped in an envelope, creating an air bubble, the envelope might wrinkle during printing. An envelope with double-side-seam construction vertical seams at both ends of the envelope rather than diagonal seams is more likely to wrinkle. Make sure the seam extends all the way to the corner of the envelope as shown in top figure of the following illustration:. The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams.

Paper that is too heavy might cause misfeeds, stacking problems, jams, poor toner fusing, poor print quality, or excessive mechanical wear. My version of Windows 10 must be a little differant.
