Media paths

The following sections describe the input trays and output bin.

Priority feed slot

You should use the priority feed slot when feeding one sheet of paper, envelope, postcard, label, or transparency. You can also use the priority feed slot to print the first page on different media than the rest of the document.

Media guides ensure that the media is correctly fed into the printer and that the print is not skewed (crooked on the media). When loading media, adjust the media guides to match the width of the media that you are using.

See Choosing paper and other media on page 22 for more information about media types.

Main input tray

The main input tray, accessed from the front of the printer, holds up to 150 sheets of 20-lb paper or other media. For information about media specifications, see Printer capacities and ratings on page 75.

Media guides ensure the media is correctly fed into the printer and the print is not skewed (crooked on the media). The main input tray has both side and front media guides. When loading media, adjust the media guides to match the length and width of the media that you are using.

Output bin

The output bin is located on the top of the printer. Printed media is collected here in the correct sequence. The output media support provides improved stacking for large print jobs.

Within a software application, changes made in the Page Setup dialog box override changes made in the Print dialog box.

Printer information page

If a particular print setting can be changed in more than one of the ways listed above, use the method that has the highest priority.

Printer information page

The Printer Test page is a printer information page that resides within the memory of the printer. During installation you can choose to print the Printer Test page. If the page prints, you correctly installed the printer.

Printer Test page

The Printer Test page contains information about printer driver and port settings. The page also contains information about the printer name and model, computer name, and so on. You can print the Printer Test page from the printer driver.

Printer media considerations

HP LaserJet printers produce excellent print quality. The printer accepts a variety of media, such as cutsheet paper (including recycled paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies, vellum, and custom-size paper. Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors affecting printer performance and output quality.

The printer can use a variety of paper and other print media in accordance with the guidelines in this user guide. Media that does not meet these guidelines might cause the following problems:

●Poor print quality

●Increased media jams

●Premature wear on the printer, requiring repair

For best results, use only HP brand paper and print media. Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of other brands. Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence or control their quality.

It is possible for media to meet all of the guidelines in this user guide and still not produce satisfactory results. This might be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and humidity levels, or other variables over which HP has no control.

Before purchasing a large quantity of media, make sure that it meets the requirements specified in this user guide and in the HP LaserJet printer family print media guide. The guidelines can be downloaded from http://www.hp.com/support/ljpaperguide/ or see Ordering supplies on page 92 for more information about ordering the guidelines. Always test media before you purchase a large quantity.

CAUTION: Using media that does not meet HP’s specifications might cause problems for the printer, requiring repair. This repair is not covered by the HP warranty or service agreements.

Supported media sizes

For information about supported media sizes, see Printer capacities and ratings on page 75.

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 priority feed slot and load letterhead into the main input tray.

To print using manual feed

1.Access the printer properties (or printing preferences in Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7). See Printer properties (driver) on page 8 for instructions.

2.On the Paper/Quality tab, select Manual Feed from the Source is drop-down list.

3.Feed media into the priority feed slot, and click Continue.

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.

●Software application: Typically, a dialog box appears briefly on your screen, allowing you to cancel the print job.

●Windows print queue: If a print job is waiting in a print queue (computer memory) or print spooler, delete the job there. Click Start, Settings, and Printers or Printers and Faxes. Double-click the HP LaserJet 1020 icon to open the window, select your print job, and click Delete or Cancel.

If the status lights on the control panel continue to blink after you cancel a print job, the computer is still sending the job to the printer. Either delete the job from the print queue or wait until the computer finishes sending data. The printer will return to the Ready state.

Understanding print quality settings

Print quality settings affect how light or dark the print is on the page and the style in which 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 on page 17 for more information.

You can change the settings in the printer properties to accommodate the types of jobs you are printing. The following are the settings:

●FastRes 1200: This setting provides 1200 dpi effective output quality (600 x 600 x 2 dpi with HP Resolution Enhancement technology [REt]).

●600 dpi: This setting provides 600 x 600 dpi output with Resolution Enhancement technology (REt) for improved text.

●EconoMode (Save Toner): Text is printed using less toner. This setting is useful when you are printing drafts. You can turn on this option independently of other print quality settings.

1.Access the printer properties (or printing preferences in Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7). See Printer properties (driver) on page 8 for instructions.

2.On the Finishing tab, select the print quality setting you want to use.

NOTE: Not all printer features are available in all drivers or operating systems. See the printer properties (driver) online Help for information about the availability of features for that driver.

NOTE: To change the print quality settings for all future print jobs, access the properties through the Start menu in the Windows task bar. To change the print quality settings only for the current software application, access the properties through the Print Setup menu in the application you are using to print. See Printer properties (driver) on page 8 for more information.

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.

The HP LaserJet 1020 printer provides a number of print modes that allow the unit to adapt more specifically to the printer’s media environment. The following tables provide an overview of the driver print modes.

NOTE: When using the CARDSTOCK, ENVELOPE, LABEL, and ROUGH modes, the printer pauses between pages and the number of pages per minute decreases.

Table 2-1 Driver print default modes

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 might cause jams or damage the printer.

Paper

For best results, use conventional 75 g/m2 (20 lb) paper. Make sure that the paper is of good quality and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled or bent edges.

If you are unsure about what type of paper you are loading (such as bond or recycled), check the label on the package of paper.

Some paper causes print quality problems, jamming, or damage to the printer.

Table 2-2 Paper usage

NOTE: 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. The printer’s maximum temperature is 200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second.

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. Use only transparencies that are specified for use with HP LaserJet printers.

Labels

HP recommends that you print labels from the priority feed slot.

CAUTION: Do not feed a sheet of labels through the printer more than once. The adhesive degrades and might damage the printer.

Label construction

When selecting labels, consider the quality of the following components:

●Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 200°C (392°F), the printer’s maximum temperature.

●Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.

●Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (0.5 inches) of curl in any direction.

●Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation.

Transparencies

Transparencies must be able to withstand the printer’s maximum temperature of 200°C (392°F).

Envelopes

HP recommends that you print envelopes from the priority feed slot.

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 (0.25 inches) curl and should not contain air. Envelopes that trap air might cause problems. Do not use envelopes that contain clasps, snaps, tie strings, transparent windows, holes, perforations, cut outs, synthetic materials, stamping, or embossing. Do not use envelopes with adhesives that do not require moistening, but rely instead on pressure to seal them.

●Condition: Make sure that the envelopes are not wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged. Make sure that the envelopes do not have any exposed adhesive.

●Sizes: The envelope sizes range from 90 x 160 mm (3.5 x 6.3 inches) to 178 x 254 mm (7 x 10 inches).

Envelopes with double-side seams

An envelope with double-side-seam construction has vertical seams at both ends of the envelope rather than diagonal seams. This style might be more likely to wrinkle. Make sure that the seam extends all the way to the corner of the envelope as shown in the following illustration.

1acceptable envelope construction

2unacceptable envelope construction

Envelopes with adhesive strips or flaps

Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the heat and pressure in the printer. The printer’s maximum temperature is 200°C (392°F). The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams.

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.

Cardstock and heavy media

You can print many types of cardstock from the media input trays, including index cards and postcards. Some cardstock performs better than others because its construction is better suited for feeding through a laser printer.

For optimum printer performance, do not use paper heavier than 157 g/m2 (42 lb). Paper that is too heavy might cause misfeeds, stacking problems, paper jams, poor toner fusing, poor print quality, or excessive mechanical wear.

NOTE: You might be able to print on heavier paper if you do not fill the input tray to capacity and if you use paper with a smoothness rating of 100-180 Sheffield.

Cardstock construction

●Smoothness: The 135-157 g/m2 (36-42 lb) cardstock should have a smoothness rating of 100-180 Sheffield; 60-135 g/m2 (16-36 lb) cardstock should have a smoothness rating of 100-250 Sheffield.

●Construction: Cardstock should lie flat with less than 5 mm (0.2 inches) of curl.

●Condition: Make sure that the cardstock is not wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.

●Sizes: Only use cardstock within the following size ranges:

◦Minimum: 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches)

◦Maximum: 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14.0 inches)

Cardstock guidelines

Set margins at least 2 mm (0.08 inches) away from the edges.

Letterhead and preprinted forms

Letterhead is premium paper that often has a watermark, sometimes uses cotton fiber, and is available in a wide range of colors and finishes with matching envelopes. Preprinted forms can be made of a broad spectrum of paper types ranging from recycled to premium.

Many manufactures now design these grades of paper with properties optimized for laser printer and advertise the paper as laser-compatible or laser-guaranteed.

NOTE: Some page-to-page variation is normal when printing with laser printers. This variation cannot be observed when printing on plain paper. However, this variation is obvious when printing on preprinted forms because the lines and boxes are already placed on the page.

To avoid problems when using preprinted forms, embossed paper, and letterhead, observe the following guidelines:

●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 200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second. Typically, oxidation-set or oil-based inks meet this requirement.

●When the form is preprinted, be careful not to change the moisture content of the paper, and do not use materials that change the paper’s electrical or handling properties. Seal the forms in moisture-proof wrap to prevent moisture changes during storage.

●Avoid processing preprinted forms that have a finish or coating.

●Avoid using heavily embossed or raised-letterhead papers.

●Avoid papers that have heavily textured surfaces.

●Avoid using offset powders or other materials that prevent printed forms from sticking together.

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 x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches)

●Maximum: 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches)

Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors that affect printer performance and quality. To achieve the best possible print quality, only use high-quality media designed for laser printers. See Printer media considerations on page 11 for detailed paper and media specifications.

NOTE: Always test a sample of the media before you purchase large quantities. Your media supplier should understand the requirements specified in the HP LaserJet printer family print media guide (HP part number 5851-1468). See Printer media considerations on page 11 for more information.

HP media

HP recommends the following HP media:

●HP Multipurpose Paper

●HP Office Paper

●HP All-in-One Printing Paper

●HP LaserJet Paper

●HP Premium Choice LaserJet Paper

Media to avoid

The HP LaserJet 1020 printer can handle many types of media. Use of media outside the printer’s specifications will cause a loss of print quality and increase the chance of paper jams.

●Do not use paper that is too rough.

●Do not use paper with cutouts or perforations other than standard three-hole punched paper.

●Do not use multipart forms.

●Do not use paper with a watermark if you are printing solid patterns.

Media that might damage the printer

In rare circumstances media can damage the printer. The following media must be avoided to prevent possible damage:

●Do not use media with staples attached.

●Do not use transparencies designed for Inkjet printers or other low-temperature printers. Use only transparencies that are specified for use with HP LaserJet printers.

●Do not use photo paper intended for Inkjet printers.

●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 1020 printer.

●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.

●Do not use any media that produces hazardous emissions, or that melts, offsets, or discolors when exposed to 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 considerations on page 11 for more information.

Priority feed slot

The priority feed slot holds one sheet of media up to 163 g/m2 (43 lb) or one envelope, transparency, or cardstock. Load media with the top forward and the side to be printed facing up. To prevent jams and skewing, always adjust the side media guides before feeding the media.

150-sheet main input tray

The input tray holds up to 150 pages of 75 g/m2 (20 lb) paper or fewer pages of heavier media of 25 mm (0.9 inches) or less stack height. Load media with the top forward and the side to be printed facing up. To prevent jams and skewing, always adjust the side and front media guides.

NOTE: When you add new media, make sure that you remove all of the media from the input tray and straighten the stack of new media. This helps prevent multiple sheets of media from feeding through the printer at one time, reducing media jams.

Printing an envelope

Only use envelopes that are recommended for laser printers. See Printer media considerations on page 11 for more information.

NOTE: Use the priority feed slot for printing one envelope. Use the main input tray for printing multiple envelopes.

1.Before loading the envelope, slide the media guides outward to slightly wider than the envelopes.

NOTE: If the envelope has a flap on the short edge, feed that edge into the printer first.

2.Place the envelope with the side to be printed facing up and the top edge along the left media guide.

3.Adjust the media guides to the width of the envelope.
