@izzie82, Welcome to the HP Support Community!  

  

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your HP 4152e! 

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.  

  

Yes, the HP DeskJet 4152e All-in-One Printer can print on transparencies, but there are a few important things to keep in mind:

 

1. Use Compatible Transparencies

Not all transparencies are suitable for inkjet printers. Look for inkjet-compatible transparencies that are specifically designed to absorb ink and prevent smudging. HP recommends using HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film or similar high-quality transparencies.

 

2. Load Transparencies Correctly

  • Place the transparency sheets print-side down in the input tray (usually the rougher side).
  • Load one sheet at a time to avoid paper jams.

3. Adjust Print Settings

  • Open the Print Dialog in your application.
  • Go to Printer Properties or Preferences and set:
    • Paper Type: "Transparency" (if available) or "Other specialty papers."
    • Print Quality: "Best" for better ink adhesion.
  • Allow printed transparencies to dry completely before handling.

4. Use Original HP Ink

Using genuine HP 67 or HP 67XL ink cartridges ensures better print quality and prevents ink from smearing.  

 

Let me know if you need help with specific print settings! 😊

  

Take care, and have an amazing day!
