Printing Photographs
Printing photographs is similar to printing any other
color image. The main differences are paper and print quality
selections. For best results when printing photographs, use one
of HP’s photo papers. For a list of available photo paper
products and ordering information, see page 71.
1 In the Setup tab of the HP print settings box, select a photo
paper for the Paper Type. (See “Finding the HP print settings
box” on page 30.)
2 Make sure Best print quality is selected. When you select an
HP photo paper, this option is automatically selected.
PhotoREt also becomes available. This feature can only be
disabled (unchecked) when an HP photo paper is selected.
3 Load the paper as you would for normal printing.
Make sure you insert the paper printable side down.
4 Print the document.
For the best results, remove each sheet promptly after
printing, and allow it to dry printable side up. (The drying
time will vary depending on the humidity.)
After printing, remember to:
• Remove any special paper you’ve used from the IN tray and
replace it with whatever you’ll be printing on next.
• Reset the Paper Size and Paper Type on the Setup tab of the
HP print settings box to whatever you’ll be printing on next.
Note: PhotoREt automatically sets the best print speed
and quality for your image. If this feature is disabled
(unchecked), the image is printed at the highest available
resolution compatible with your settings (up to 600 x 1200
dpi); however, the image will print significantly slower and
will temporarily require a large amount of hard disk space.
