I have read on HP sites that this printer supports photo paper of 280gm/m2 but I have tried to use HP Everyday Photo Paper of 200gm/m2 but it will not feed or jams. Why?

Photo paper
Up to 280 g/m² (75 lb bond)

 

"Jams" caused by the weight of the paper might include

  • Not correctly setting the Media type in the printer dialog (preferences / shortcuts)
  • For those printers that support the feature:  Not having set the Media on the printer panel

 

What else?

Jams can also be caused by printer error, a dirty printer, or worn parts.

 

NOTE: 

Paper jams can be real or false. The printer might report a paper jam even when there is no jammed paper. The following steps apply to both real and false paper jams.

 'Paper Jam' Error
