The HP OfficeJet Pro 8720 All-in-One Printer is a versatile inkjet printer that can handle various types of paper, including photo paper, as long as it's within the recommended specifications. When choosing photo paper for your printer, consider the following factors to ensure compatibility and optimal printing results:
Paper Type: Look for photo paper specifically designed for inkjet printers. Most photo paper packs will specify compatibility with inkjet printers on the packaging.
Paper Size: Make sure the photo paper size is supported by your printer. The HP OfficeJet Pro 8720 can handle various paper sizes, including letter, legal, 4x6 inch, 5x7 inch, 8x10 inch, and more.
Paper Weight: Check the paper weight or thickness. Photo paper typically comes in different weights, such as 200gsm, 250gsm, etc. Make sure the paper weight falls within the range recommended by your printer.
Finish: Photo paper comes in different finishes, such as glossy, matte, satin, etc. Choose the finish that matches your preferences for the printed photo's appearance.
Brand and Quality: While HP-branded photo paper is a safe choice, other reputable brands also offer high-quality photo paper that can work well with your printer.
When you're shopping for photo paper, check the packaging for compatibility information. Many manufacturers provide a list of printer models their photo paper is compatible with. Additionally, you can refer to the HP OfficeJet Pro 8720 printer's user manual or visit the official HP website for recommendations and compatibility information. Here is the HP link for your printer with compatible/recommended photo paper: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_5162816-5163501-16. HP and other brand name photo paper supplies can conveniently be purchased online, such as via Amazon.
Remember that using genuine HP supplies, including paper, can help ensure the best performance and quality, as they are designed to work optimally with HP printers.
