• They are of good quality for their intended use.
• They work well with the MFPs’ settings.
HP-branded paper is available at www.hp.com/go/paper
or from your local office supplies retailer (see page 4 for
recommended types.) These MFPs can also use
non-HP-brand paper that falls within the specifications for
supported paper (see pages 4 – 5 of this guide).
Set the printer for the appropriate type and size of paper:
• Load paper into one of the five paper uptake trays
(see table below for paper supported in each tray.)
• Select the paper type and size for that tray on the
control panel.
• Be sure to choose paper type in your driver when
printing from your computer (instead of selecting a
paper tray source).
• The printer’s “smart trays” will pull from the first tray
containing the paper size and type you selected.
• When you change the paper type in a tray,
be sure to select the new paper type for that
tray on the control panel.

Using the correct paper input/output option
Moving paper through the HP CM8060/CM8050 Color MFPs with Edgeline Technology at high speeds is one of
the MFP’s valuable features. Using the correct tray for each different type of paper will help ensure trouble-free print-
ing. Here is a chart that will help you select the correct option for each paper.
* Tray 5 is an optional accessory, (sold separately).
** One output option (sold separately) must be chosen per MFP device. Only one output device may be connected at a time.

Optimizing your output
This MFP with Edgeline Technology series accepts paper
such as cut-sheet paper (including recycled), labels,
glossy and custom-size paper. Weight, grain direction,
smoothness and moisture content are important factors
that affect MFP performance and print quality. For heavy
and glossy paper, select paper type and size on the
control panel for copy applications and in the printer
driver for print applications. Using the wrong setting can
result in unsatisfactory print quality. Always print by type
for special print paper such as labels, matte brochure,
heavy paper or glossy paper.
Note: Be sure to use paper that falls within the paper
specifications on this page to support optimal
running of your MFP (see page 4 as a guide.) Using
paper that is outside of these HP specifications
could cause problems that require MFP repair. This
repair is not covered by the HP warranty or
service agreements.
The paper types that are listed on page 4 of this guide
meet these criteria:
• They have been tested in these MFPs.
The HP CM8060/CM8050 Color MFPs are designed to work across a broad range of plain
papers used in the general office. For optimum performance we have provided a set of
recommended papers on page 4. For best results, be sure to always select the correct printer
settings for the chosen paper.
