Print to the top (standard) output bin
The top output bin collects paper face-down, 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 rear output bin is
closed. To avoid jams, do not open or close the rear output bin while the product is printing.

Print to the rear output bin
The product always prints to the rear output bin if it is open. Paper that is printed to this bin will exit face-
up, with the last page on top (reverse order).
Printing from Tray 1 to the rear output bin provides the straightest path. Opening the rear output bin
might improve performance with the following items:
●Envelopes
● Labels
● Small custom-size paper
● Postcards
● Paper heavier than 120 g/m
2 (32 lb)
To open the rear output bin, grasp the handle at the top of the bin. Pull the bin down to a 45° angle, and
slide out the extension.
Opening the rear output bin makes the duplexer and the top output bin unavailable. To avoid jams, do
not open or close the rear output bin while the product is printing.

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:
●At the product control panel, select the 
CONFIGURE DEVICE menu, and then select the  PRINT
QUALITY  submenu. EconoMode is turned off by default.
● In the embedded Web server, open the 
Settings tab and select the  Configure Device option.
Navigate to the  Print Quality submenu.
● In the HP Printer Utility for Macintosh, click 
Configuration Settings, and then click Economode
& Toner Density .
● In the Windows PCL printer driver, open the 
Paper/Quality tab, and select the  EconoMode option.
