    The computer directly connected to  the HP All-in-One acts as the host for the printer and 
    has full software functiona lity. The other computer, which is referred to as a client, has 
    access only to the print features. You must perform other functions from the host 
    computer or from the control panel on the HP All-in-One. 
    To enable printer sharing on a Windows computer

    load HP Premium or HP Premium Plus photo paper in the input tray. 
    The following is a list of HP papers you can use for copying and printing. Depending on 
    your country/region, some of these papers might not be available. 
    HP Advanced Photo Paper or HP Photo Paper 
    HP Advanced Photo Paper or HP Photo P aper is a sturdy, glossy photo paper that 
    features an instant-dry finish for easy handling without smudging. It resists water, smears,
    fingerprints, and humidity. Your prints have a look and feel comparable to a store- 
    processed photo. It is available in several sizes, including A4, 8.5 x 11 inch, and 10 x 15 
    cm (4 x 6 inch) (with or without tabs) for printing or copying photos from the product. HP

    extra bright blue-white shade that produc es sharper text and richer colors than 
    ordinary multifunction papers.

    To order HP papers and other supplies, go to www.hp.com/buy/supplies . If prompted, 
    choose your country/region, follow the prompts to select your product, and then click one 
    of the shopping links on the page.

    Recommended papers for printing only
    Certain papers are supported only when you start the print job from your computer. The 
    following list provides information about these papers. 
    If you want the best print quality, HP recommends using HP papers. Using paper that is 
    too thin or too thick, paper that has a slick texture, or paper that stretches easily can cause
    paper jams. Using paper that has a heavy texture or does not accept ink can cause printed 
    images to smear, bleed, or not fill in completely. 
    Depending on your country/region, some of these papers might not be available. 
    HP Iron-On Transfers 
    HP Iron-On Transfers (for color fabrics or for  light or white fabrics) are the ideal solution 
    for creating custom T-shirts from your digital photos. 
    HP Brochure & Flyer Paper 
    HP Brochure & Flyer Paper (Glo ss or Matte) is glossy-coated or matte-coated on both 
    sides for two-sided use. They are the perfect choice for near-photographic reproductions
    and business graphics for report covers, special presentations, brochures, mailers, and
    calendars. 
    HP Premium Presentation Paper 
    HP Premium Presentation Paper gives your presentation a quality look and feel. 
    To order HP papers and other supplies, go to www.hp.com/buy/supplies . If prompted, 
    choose your country/region, follow the prompts to select your product, and then click one 
    of the shopping links on the page.
    NOTE: At this time, some portions of the HP Web site are available in English only.
    Papers to avoid
    Using paper that is too thin or too thick, paper that has a slick texture, or paper that 
    stretches easily can cause paper jams. Using paper that has a heavy texture or does not 
    accept ink can cause printed images to smear, bleed, or not fill in completely.

    							NOTE:For a complete list of supported media sizes, see the printer software.
    Papers to avoid for all print and copy jobs 
    • Any size paper other than those listed in the printer software. 
    • Paper with cutouts or perforations (unless specifically designed for use with HP inkjet 
    devices). 
    • Highly textured stock, such as linen. It might not print evenly, and the ink can bleed 
    into these papers. 
    • Extremely smooth, shiny, or coated papers not specifically designed for the HP All- 
    in-One. They can jam the HP All-in-One or repel the ink. 
    • Multi-part forms, such as duplicate and triplicate forms. They can wrinkle or get stuck, 
    and the ink is more likely to smear. 
    • Envelopes with clasps or windows. They can get stuck in the rollers and cause paper 
    jams. 
    • Banner paper. 
    Additional papers to avoid when copying 
    • Envelopes. 
    • Transparency film other than HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film or HP Premium 
    Plus Inkjet Transparency Film. 
    • Iron-On Transfers. 
    • Greeting card paper.
    Load paper
    This section describes the procedure for loading different types and sizes of paper into 
    the HP All-in-One for your copies or printouts.

    a resealable bag. If the paper is not stored  properly, extreme changes in temperature 
    and humidity might result in curled paper that does not work well in the HP All-in-One.
