HP LaserJet 3150 All-in-One Printer series - Manual (Page 19)

EN Selecting and loading items 17
When loading items to be faxed, copied, or scanned, you need to
protect small, fragile, lightweight (less than 12 lb, or 46 g/m
2 ), or
irregularly sized items such as receipts, newspaper clippings,
photographs or old or worn documents. To do so, HP recommends
that you do one of the following:
● Place the item in a carrier sheet. You can buy a carrier sheet, or
you can make one by taping a transparency and piece of paper
together along one of the short sides. Insert the item to be faxed,
copied, or scanned into the carrier, and insert the carrier into the
document feeder tray, taped edge first.
● Using clear tape, tape the leading and trailing edges of the item to
a sheet of letter- or A4-size paper. If the item is not square or
rectangular, tape all edges of the item to the paper.
● If you have access to a full-size copier, copy the item first and
then send the copy through the scanner.
When sending items in a carrier sheet, you need to move the special
media lever to the right and feed only one carrier sheet at a time. See
“To load special items” on page 19.
