HP papers

HP Premium Inkjet Paper: Locate the gray arrow on the nonprinting side of the paper, and then insert paper with the arrow side facing up. HP Premium or Premium Plus Photo Paper: Load the glossy (print) side down. Always load at least five sheets of regular paper in the paper tray first, and then place the photo paper on top of the regular paper. HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film: Insert the film so that the white transparency strip (with arrows and the HP logo) is on top and is going into the tray first. HP Inkjet T-shirt Transfer Iron-On: Flatten the transfer sheet completely before using it; do not load curled sheets. (To prevent curling, keep transfer sheets sealed in the original package until you are ready to use them.) Manually feed one sheet at a time, with the unprinted side facing down (the blue stripe faces up). HP Matte Greeting Cards, HP Glossy Greeting Cards, or HP FeltTextured Greeting Cards: Insert a small stack of HP greeting-card paper, with the print-side down, into the paper tray until it stops.
Labels (works only with printing)
Always use letter-size or A4-size label sheets designed for use with HP inkjet products (like Avery Inkjet Labels), and make sure that the labels are not over two years old. Fan the stack of labels to make sure none of the pages are sticking together. Place a stack of label sheets on top of standard paper in the paper tray, print-side down. Do not insert labels one sheet at a time.
Postcards or hagaki cards (only works with printing) Continuous (banner) paper (works only with printing)
Insert a stack of postcards or hagaki cards with the print-side down into the paper tray until it stops. Line the postcards up on the right side of the paper tray, slide the width guide up against the left side of the cards, and then slide the paper-length guide in until it stops. Continuous banner paper is also known as computer or z-fold paper. Before loading banner paper, remove all other paper from the paper tray, then remove the output tray.
Remove the output tray. Insert the unattached edge of the paper into the paper tray.
If you use non-HP banner paper, use 20-lb. paper and fan the paper before loading it. Verify that the stack of banner paper contains at least five pages in the stack. Carefully tear off the perforated edge strips from both sides of the paper stack, if any, and unfold and refold the paper to make sure the pages do not stick together. Put the paper in the paper tray so that the unattached edge is at the top of the stack. Insert the first edge into the paper tray until it stops, as shown in the illustration above. Replace the output tray.

set the paper type

If you want to use a different type of paper, such as photo paper, transparency film, Iron-On T-shirt transfers, or brochures, simply load that paper in the paper tray. You must then change the paper type settings to ensure the best print quality. HP recommends paper type settings according to the type of paper youre using.
hp psc 2200 series This setting refers to copy or photo card options only. If you want to set the paper type for printing from a computer, set the properties in the Print dialog box of the software.
Press Copy or Photo Card, if not already lit. Press Options until Paper Type appears. Press until the appropriate paper type appears. Press Enter to choose the displayed paper type.

set the paper size

The HP PSC can use Letter or A4 paper. If you are printing photos from a photo card, you can also use 4 x 6 inch photo paper. Use the following procedure to set the paper size for copy or photo card options.
Press Copy or Photo Card, if not already lit. Press Options until Paper Size appears. Press until the appropriate paper size appears. Press Enter to choose the displayed paper size.
To avoid jams, remove papers from the output tray frequently. The output tray capacity is affected by the type of paper and the amount of ink you are using. For more information about output-tray capacity, see technical information on page 97.

use a photo card

what is a photo card?
If your digital camera uses a photo card to store photos, you can insert the photo card in your HP PSC to print or save your photos. You can print a proof sheet, which may be several pages long and shows thumbnail views of photos stored on the photo card, and print photos from the photo card, even if your HP PSC is not connected to a computer. Your HP PSC can read CompactFlash I, II (includes IBM Microdrive up to 528 MB), Memory Stick, Secure Digital, and SmartMedia photo cards. Your HP PSC features four different slots for photo card input, shown in the illustration below with the photo card that corresponds to each slot.

CompactFlash

SecureDigital Memory Stick SmartMedia
The IBM Microdrive photo card uses the same slot as the Compact Flash photo card, as shown on the next page.
You can only use one photo card in your HP PSC at a time.
By default, Windows XP will format a CompactFlash photo card of 64MB or more with FAT32 format. Digital cameras and other devices use the FAT (FAT16) format and cannot operate with a FAT32 formatted card. Either format your CompactFlash card in your camera or select FAT format to format your CompactFlash card in a Windows XP PC.

use the scan features

Scanning is the process of converting text and pictures into an electronic format for your computer. You can scan just about anything: Photos Magazine articles Text documents 3D objects (be careful not to scratch the glass) to put into catalogs and flyers
Because the scanned image or text is in an electronic format, you can bring it into your word processor or graphics program and modify it to suit your needs. You can do the following: Scan text from an article into your word processor and quote it in a report, saving you a lot of retyping. Scan in a logo and use it in your publishing software, allowing you to print business cards and brochures for yourself. Scan in photos of your kids and e-mail them to relatives, create a photographic inventory of your house or office, or create an electronic scrapbook. Tip! To use the scan features, your HP PSC and computer must be connected and turned on. The HP PSC software must also be installed and running on your computer prior to scanning. To verify that the HP PSC software is running on Windows, look for a status icon in the system tray. On a Macintosh, the HP PSC software is always running. For more information about scanning your documents or pictures from the HP PSC software, see scan pictures and documents in the HP Photo & Imaging Help for more information.

Turn ECM off (the default setting is on) only if it increases phone charges substantially and you are willing to accept poorer quality in exchange for reduced charges.
