Welcome to the HP Community --
It's perhaps not the brand as much as the paper type, weight, or even sheet size.
At least in the USA, Avery is considered a premier brand.
Use what you like - quality is more important than the name on the package.
If paper size, type, and weight are supported in the Specifications -- then check / adjust the paper size & type - Tray and Paper in the Embedded Web Server (EWS) before starting your print job.
True - top loader printers might be less forgiving than other printers about paper and settings.

Selecting Paper Types in EWS
Paper type selections available in EWS -- and at the printer when that printer includes a text-input capable Printer Control Panel -- are different from the paper type selections found in the application / software used to configure the print job.
Select a paper type in Tray and Paper that -- as close as possible -- matches the paper type you are using and is selected in the printer software / application you are using to open, view, configure, and submit the job to the printer.
For example, (if) using
Brochure or Professional paper - matte, select (in EWS): Brochure, Specialty Paper – Matte, Thick
HP Card paper or Index Paper, if available, select (in EWS): Plain Paper, Thick OR Specialty Paper - Matte
If your Index card paper is close to the weight of Brochure paper and other options are not listed, select Brochure - Matte
------------------------- ---------------------------------
Notes – Paper Types
Depending on the printer model, Photo paper might be supported to 250 gsm, or, if specified, to 280 or 300 gsm.
For example, HP Advanced Photo paper is 250 gsm.
Do not select Photo paper if you are actually using a different paper type.
Do not attempt to use 300 gsm photo paper in a printer that does not support paper in that weight class.
Index card paper is an ISO paper type. On a printer that supports “card paper”, HP Card paper -- unless otherwise specified -- is defined as Card / Index paper and is generally supported to 200 gsm.
If “card” paper is not listed in the Specifications, paper in this weight class might NOT be supported.
Brochure and Professional paper are typically the same weight. Brochure paper comes in two print surfaces: Matte and Glossy. HP Brochure / Professional papers are 180 gsm in weight.
If the “heavy” paper type is generally supported but is not listed in the job configuration Properties, select the closer alternative: For example, in Properties > select “Brochure” / “Professional”.
Plain Paper is typically defined as standard office paper at 16-24 lb in weight.
