The paper type is not in the driver
To work with a paper not in the driver, you can use your paper as one of the presets already in the
driver, however, you must identify whether your paper is transparent or translucent, glossy or matte.
NOTE:
For glossy paper, it is important to use a glossy paper type, as matte black ink does not print
well on glossy paper.
Transparent or translucent paper
If your paper is a transparent film (for example, a transparency), select paper type Film >
Transparent/Clear film.
If your paper is a translucent paper (for example, technical paper), select paper type Technical
paper > Natural Tracing Paper, Vellum or Translucent bond.
Glossy paper
If your paper is a photo paper, use the Photo Paper category. For glossy or high-gloss paper select
paper type Photo Gloss Paper. For Semi-gloss, Satin, Pearl or Luster finishes, select paper type
Semi-gloss/Satin Paper.
To increase gamut on photo paper, select paper type HP Universal High-gloss Photo Paper or
HP Universal Semi-gloss Photo Paper, depending on the finish.

paper category and type, first identify if your paper is general purpose or photographic. Then select
the recommended paper types.
