HP LaserJet P2035n User Manual

							Print to the straight-through paper path (rear output)
The product always uses the straight-through paper path if it is open. Paper exits face-up, with the last
page on top (reverse order).
Printing from Tray 1 to the rear output provides the straightest path. Opening the straight-through paper
path might improve performance with the following paper types:
●Envelopes
● Labels
● Small custom-size paper
● Postcards
● Paper heavier than 120 g/m
2 (32 lb)
To open the straight-through paper path, grasp the handle at the top of the rear door, and pull the door
down.
NOTE: Be sure to open the straight-through paper path, not the jam-release door.

							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:
●In the embedded Web server (network model only), open the 
Settings tab and select the  PCL
Settings  option.
● In the Windows printer driver, open the 
Paper/Quality tab and select the  EconoMode option.
● In the Macintosh printer driver, open the 
Print Quality drop-down menu.
