Hi @NanieGhani,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
Yes, you can print on glossy paper using an HP Deskjet printer. However, there are a few things to consider.
- Paper Compatibility: Ensure that the glossy paper you have is compatible with your specific HP Deskjet printer model. Check the printer's manual or specifications to see the recommended paper types and weights.
- Printer Settings: Adjust the printer settings to match the type of paper you are using. Most printers have settings for different paper types, including glossy paper. You can usually access these settings through the printer's control panel or the print dialog on your computer.
- Ink Compatibility: Make sure that the ink cartridges in your printer are suitable for printing on glossy paper. Some printers may have specific ink formulations for optimal results on glossy surfaces.
- Print Quality: Select the highest print quality settings for the best results on glossy paper. This may be an option in the printer settings or within the print dialog on your computer.
- Allow for Drying Time: Since glossy paper takes longer to dry than regular paper, be patient and allow the prints to fully dry before handling them to prevent smudging.
Always refer to your printer's manual or documentation for specific guidance on printing with glossy paper. Additionally, you can find information on the recommended paper types and settings in the printer driver on your computer.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
