HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277 - User Guide

● Use paper that does not contain metallic material, such as glitter.
● Use paper that is designed for use in laser printers. Do not use paper that is designed only for use in Inkjet
printers.
● Use paper that is not too rough. Using smoother paper generally results in better print quality.
Step two: Check the environment
The environment can directly aect print quality and is a common cause for print-quality or paper-feeding
issues. Try the following solutions:
● Move the product away from drafty locations, such as open windows or doors, or air-conditioning vents.
● Make sure the product is not exposed to temperatures or humidity outside of product specications.
● Do not place the product in a conned space, such as a cabinet.
● Place the product on a sturdy, level surface.
● Remove anything that is blocking the vents on the product. The product requires good air ow on all sides,
including the top.
● Protect the product from airborne debris, dust, steam, grease, or other elements that can leave residue
inside the product.
