4 Printing tasks This chapter provides information on the following topics: ENWW ● Manual feed ● Canceling a print job ● Understanding print quality settings ● Using EconoMode (saves toner) ● Optimizing print quality for media types ● Guidelines for using media ● Choosing paper and other media ● Loading media into the input trays ● Printing an envelope ● Printing on transparencies or labels ● Printing on letterhead and preprinted forms ● Printing on custom-size media and card stoc
Manual feed You can use manual feed when printing mixed media, for example, an envelope, then a letter, then an envelope, and so on. Feed an envelope into the single-sheet priority input slot (Tray 1) and load letterhead into the main input tray (Tray 2). To print using manual feed, access the printer Properties or Printer Setup in your software application, and select Manual Feed (Tray 1) from the Source Tray drop-down list. See Printer Properties (driver) for instructions.
Canceling a print job You can cancel a print job from a software application or a print queue. To stop the printer immediately, remove the remaining paper from the printer. After the printer stops, use one of the following options. ● Printer control panel: To cancel the print job, press and release the CANCEL button on the printer control panel. ● Software application: Typically, a dialog box appears briefly on your screen, allowing you to cancel the print job.
Understanding print quality settings Print quality settings affect how light or dark the print is on the page and the style that the graphics are printed. You can also use the print quality settings to optimize the print quality for a specific media type. See Optimizing print quality for media types for more information. You can change the settings in the printer Properties to accommodate the types of jobs you are printing.
Using EconoMode (saves toner) EconoMode is a feature that allows the printer to use less toner per page. Selecting this option will extend the life of the toner supply and will reduce cost per page. However, it will also reduce print quality. The printed image is lighter, but it is adequate for printing drafts or proofs. HP does not recommend the full-time use of EconoMode.
Optimizing print quality for media types Media type settings control the temperature of your printer's fuser. You can change the settings for the media that you are using to optimize the print quality. You can access the optimizing feature from the Paper tab in your printer driver, from HP Toolbox, or from the embedded Web server. The HP LaserJet 1160 and HP LaserJet 1320 series printers provide a number of print modes that allow the unit to adapt more specifically to the printer's media environment.
Guidelines for using media The following sections provide guidelines and instructions for printing on transparencies, envelopes, and other special media. Guidelines and specifications are included to help you select media that optimizes print quality and avoid media that may cause jams or damage the printer. Paper For best results, use conventional 75 g/m2 (20 lb) paper.
The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the paper. Make sure that any colored paper or preprinted forms use inks that are compatible with the printer temperature (200° C (392° F) for 0.1 second). Note Do not use letterhead that is printed with low-temperature inks, such as those used in some types of thermography. Do not use raised letterhead. Do not use transparencies designed for Inkjet printers or other low temperature printers.
Envelope construction Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary considerably, not only between manufacturers, but also within a box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the following components: ● Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 90 g/m2 (24 lb), or jamming might result. ● Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 6 mm (0.
Envelope storage Proper storage of envelopes contributes to good print quality. You should store envelopes flat. If air is trapped in an envelope, creating an air bubble, the envelope might wrinkle during printing. Card stock and heavy media You can print many types of card stock from the paper input tray, including index cards and postcards. Some card stock performs better than others because its construction is better suited for feeding through a laser printer.
To avoid problems when using preprinted forms, embossed paper, and letterhead, observe the following guidelines: ENWW ● Avoid using low-temperature inks (the kind used with some types of thermography). ● Use preprinted forms and letterhead paper that have been printed by offset lithography or engraving. ● Use forms that have been created with heat-resistant inks that will not melt, vaporize, or release undesirable emissions when heated to 205° C (401° F) for 0.1 second.
Choosing paper and other media HP LaserJet printers produce excellent print quality documents. You can print on a variety of media, such as paper (including up to 100% recycled fiber content paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies, and custom-size media. The following are the supported media sizes: ● Minimum: 76 by 127 mm (3 by 5 in.) ● Maximum: 216 by 356 mm (8.5 by 14 in) Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors that affect printer performance and quality.
● Do not use paper that is embossed or coated and is not designed for the temperatures of the printer's image fuser. Select media that can tolerate temperatures of 200° C (392° F) for 0.1 second. HP produces a selection of media that is designed for the HP LaserJet 1160 and HP LaserJet 1320 series printers. ● Do not use letterhead paper with low temperature dyes or thermography. Preprinted forms or letterhead must use inks that can tolerate temperatures of 200° C (392° F) for 0.1 second.
Loading media into the input trays The following sections describe how to load media into the different input trays. CAUTION If you try to print on media that is wrinkled, folded, or damaged in any way, a jam might occur. See Printer media specifications for more information. Single-sheet priority input slot (Tray 1) The single-sheet priority input slot holds one sheet of media up to 163 g/m2 (43 lb) or one envelope, transparency, or card.
Printing an envelope Only use envelopes that are recommended for laser printers. See Printer media specifications for more information. Note You must load envelopes one at a time in the single-sheet priority input slot (Tray 1). 1. To prevent the envelope from curling as it prints, open the straight-through output door. 2. Before loading the envelope, open the single-sheet priority input slot (Tray 1), and adjust the media guides to the width of the envelope.
3. Place the envelope with the side to be printed facing up and the top edge along the left media guide. Feed the envelope into the slot. The envelope will partially feed into the printer, and the printer will pause. Note If the envelope has a flap on the short edge, feed that edge into the printer first. 4. Access the printer Properties (or Printing Preferences in Windows 2000 and XP). See Printer Properties (driver) for instructions. 5.
Printing on transparencies or labels Only use transparencies and labels that are recommended for use in laser printers, such as HP transparency film and HP LaserJet labels. See Printer media specifications for more information. CAUTION Be sure to set the correct media type in the printer settings as instructed below. The printer adjusts the fuser temperature according to the media type setting.
Printing on letterhead and preprinted forms The HP LaserJet 1160 and HP LaserJet 1320 series printers can print on letterhead and preprinted forms that can withstand temperatures of 205° C (401° F). 1.

Cleaning the printer Clean the outside of the printer with a clean, damp cloth when necessary. CAUTION Do not use ammonia-based cleaners on or around the printer. During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the printer. Over time, this buildup can cause print quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing, and paper jams. To correct and prevent these types of problems, you can clean the print cartridge area and the printer media path.
2. With a dry, lint-free cloth, wipe any residue from the media path area and the print cartridge cavity. 3. Replace the print cartridge, and close the print cartridge door. 4. Plug the power cord back into the printer.
Cleaning the printer media path If you are experiencing toner specks or dots on the printouts, clean the printer media path. This process uses a transparency to remove dust and toner from the media path. Do not use bond or rough paper. Note For best results use a sheet of transparency. If you do not have any transparencies, you can use copier grade media (70 to 900 g/m2 (18 to 24 lb.)) with a smooth surface. 1. Make sure that the printer is idle and the Ready light is on. 2.
Changing the pickup roller Normal use with good media causes wear. The use of poor media might require more frequent replacement of the pickup roller. If the printer regularly mispicks (no media feeds through), you might need to change or clean the pickup roller. See Ordering supplies and accessories to order a new pickup roller. CAUTION Failure to complete this procedure might damage the printer. 1. Unplug the power cord from the printer, and allow the printer to cool. 2.
