Paper presets
Each supported paper type has its own characteristics. For optimum print quality, the printer changes
the way it prints on each different paper type. For example, some may need more ink and some may
require a longer drying time. So the printer must be given a description of the requirements of each
paper type. This description is called the 'paper preset'. The paper preset contains the ICC profile,
which describes the color characteristics of the paper; it also contains information on other
characteristics and requirements of the paper that are not directly related to color. Existing paper
presets for your printer are already installed in the printer's software.
However, as it is inconvenient to scroll through a list of all paper types available, your printer only
contains paper presets for the most commonly used paper types. If you have a paper type for which
your printer has no preset, you cannot select that paper type in the front-panel display.
There are two ways to assign a preset for a new paper type.
●
Use an HP factory paper preset by selecting the closest category and type in the front panel or the
HP Utility. See
The paper type is not in the driver on page 175.
NOTE: Colors may not be accurate. This method is not recommended for high-quality prints.

NOTE: HP provides presets for HP paper types only. If you do not find the paper preset you
want on the Web, you may find that it has been added to the latest firmware for your printer. You
can check the firmware release notes for information, see
Update the firmware on page 162.
To install the new preset in your printer, go to the Embedded Web Server's Setup tab and select
Paper management > Import paper preset.
If there are some paper types that you never use, you can hide them so that they do not appear in lists
and cannot be selected. Go to the Embedded Web Server's Setup tab and select Paper
management > Show/Hide papers. Select the paper types that you want to hide, click the arrow
