							Print weatherproof maps and outdoor signs
You can use the HP Color LaserJet CM3530 MFP Series to print durable, waterproof maps, signs, or
menus by using HP Tough Paper. HP Tough Paper is a waterproof, tear-proof, satin finish paper that
retains rich, vibrant print color and clarity even when exposed to heavy usage or weather. This avoids
the expensive and time-consuming laminating that is required with plain papers. To maximize the quality
of this output you must do the following:
●Choose the appropriate paper. See the table below.
● Configure the paper tray correctly. See 
Configure the paper tray on page 115
.
● Choose the correct settings in the print driver. See 
Configure the driver settings on page 116.
