You can print on plain or specialty paper. Load plain paper, legal size paper, envelopes, or index cards in the printer's input tray.
NOTE:
To purchase paper in the United States and Canada, go to the HP Store.

Load plain paper

Load plain paper into Tray 1 or Tray 2 before you print.
NOTE:
Load only U.S. letter, legal, or A4 size paper in Tray 2, if your printer includes Tray 2 as an optional accessory. Specialty paper is not supported in Tray 2.

Load plain paper in Tray 1

  3. Tap a stack of plain paper on a flat surface to align the edges.
  4. Make sure all the paper in the stack is the same size and type. Do not load mixed types of paper in the tray. The printer can process only one type of paper at a time.
    NOTE:
    Do not use paper with paper clips or staples attached. Do not use paper that is bent, torn, dusty, damp, wrinkled, curled, or paper that does not lie flat.
  5. With Tray 1 outside of the printer, load the stack of paper in portrait orientation with the print-side facing down in the center of the input tray, then slide the stack forward until it stops.
