For information about configuring the device for a  TCP/IPv6 network, see the HP Jetdirect Embedded
Print Server Administrators Guide.
Disable network protocols (optional)
By factory default, all supported network protocol s are enabled. Disabling unused protocols has the
following benefits:
● It decreases device-gen
erated network traffic.
● It prevents unauthorized users 
from printing to the device.
● It provides only pertinent inform
ation on the configuration page.
● It allows the device control panel to displa
y protocol-specific error and warning messages.

HP Jetdirect EIO print servers
HP Jetdirect print servers (network  cards) can be installed in the EIO slot. These cards support multiple
network protocols and  operating systems. HP Jetd irect print servers facilitate network management by
allowing you to connect a printer directly to your network at any location. HP Jetdirect print servers also
support the Simple Network Management Protocol  (SNMP), which provides remote printer management
and troubleshooting through the HP Web Jetadmin software.
NOTE Configure the card through the control panel, the printer installation software, or HP Web
Jetadmin. Refer to the HP Jetdirect print  server documentation for more information.

							General guidelines for media
Before purchasing any paper or specialized forms in quantity, verify that your paper supplier has
obtained and understands the print-media requirements that are specified in the HP LaserJet Printer
Family Print Media Guide .
See 
HP Customer Care  to order the HP LaserJet Printer Fam ily Print Media Guide. To download a copy
of the guide, go to 
www.hp.com/support/ljpaperguide .
It is possible that paper could meet all of the guidelines in this chapter or the  HP LaserJet Printer Family
Print Media Guide  and still not print satisfactor ily. This can result from abnormal char acteristics of the
printing environment or other variables over wh ich HP has no control (for example, extremes in
temperature and humidity).
Hewlett-Packard Company recommends testing any paper before buying it in large quantities.
CAUTION Using paper that does not conform to the specifications listed here or in the print
media guide can cause problems that require service. This service is not covered by the Hewlett-
Packard warranty or service agreements.
Paper to avoid
The product can handle many  types of paper. Using paper that does not me et specifications will cause
lower print quality and increase the chance of jams.
● Do not use paper that is too rough. Use paper wi
th a tested smoothness rating of 100–250 Sheffield.
● Do not use paper, other than standard 3-hole punche
d paper, that contains cutouts or perforations.
● Do not use multipart forms.
● Do not use paper that has already been printed 
on, or that has been fed through a photocopier.
● Do not use paper that contains a watermark if you are printing solid patterns.
● Do not use heavily embossed 
or raised-letterhead papers.
● Do not use papers that have 
heavily textured surfaces.
● Do not use offset powders or ot
her materials that prevent printed forms from sticking together.
● Do not use paper that has a colored coating that was added after the paper was produced.
Paper that can damage the device
In rare circumstances, paper can damage the device
. The following paper must be avoided to prevent
possible damage to the device:
● Do not use paper with staples attached.
● Do not use transparencies, labels,
 or photo or glossy paper designed for Inkjet printers or other
low temperature printers. Use only  media that is specified for use with HP LaserJet printers.
56 Chapter 4   Media and trays ENWW
 
						

							●Do not use any media that produces hazardous emissi
ons, or that melts, offsets, or discolors when
exposed to the temperature of the fuser.
● Do not use paper that is embossed or coated, or 
any media that is not designed to withstand the
fusing temperature of the device. Do not use lett erhead paper or preprinted forms that are made
with dyes or inks that cannot  withstand the heat of the fuser.

							Media considerations
Envelopes
Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary considerably, not only between
manufacturers, but also within a box from the sa me manufacturer. Successful printing on envelopes
depends upon the quality of the envelopes. W hen selecting envelopes, consider the following
components:
● Weight
: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 105 g/m
2 (28 lb) or jamming might
occur.
● Construction
: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 5 mm (0.2 in) curl, and
should not contain air.
● Condition
: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.
● Temperature
: You should use envelopes that are compatible with the heat and pressure of the
product.
● Size
: You should use only envelopes within the following size ranges.
● Minimum
: 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 in)
● Maximum
: 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 in)
CAUTION To avoid damaging the device, use only envelopes recommended for laser printers.
To prevent serious jams, always use tray 1 to pr int envelopes and always use the rear output bin.
Never print on the same envelope more than once.
Envelopes with double side seams
Double side-seam construction has vertical seams at  both ends of the envelope rather than diagonal
seams. This style might be more likely to wrinkle.  Be sure the seam extends all the way to the corner
of the envelope as illustrated below.
