HP LaserJet Pro M1530 - Software Technical Reference

Paper type:
The Paper type: drop-down menu shows all of the supported paper types. When you use the default
setting, Unspecified, the product uses the default paper type, which is usually Plain.
You cannot add custom paper types through the printer driver. Custom types can be added only by
using bidirectional communication, so they must already exist in the product when the bidirectional
query occurs. If bidirectional communication is enabled, then an updated list of paper types is
returned. If bidirectional communication is not enabled, then the printer driver looks for custom paper
types that have been saved from a previous bidirectional communication query, and uses those.
Otherwise, no custom paper types are available through the printer driver.
NOTE: Selecting a paper type instructs the product to use a group of predefined settings to create
the best possible print quality for that type of paper.
CAUTION: Selecting a paper type that does not match the type of paper that is loaded in the tray
can damage the product.
