Hi @mark225,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

Many HP printers support custom paper sizes, including 3" x 5" Avery index cards, as long as the printer supports manual or envelope feeding and you configure the settings correctly. The choice of printer will depend on the type of printing you need (e.g., color vs. monochrome, inkjet vs. laser). Here's a guide.

 

Recommended HP Printers for Printing on 3" x 5" Cards:

HP OfficeJet Series

  • Models: HP OfficeJet Pro 8025e, 9015e, or similar.
  • Reason: These printers are versatile for small business and home use, supporting custom sizes and good for both text and color printing.

HP ENVY Series

  • Models: HP ENVY Inspire 7255e, 7955e, or similar.
  • Reason: Ideal for creative projects and supports custom paper sizes like index cards.

HP LaserJet Series

  • Models: HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283fdw or similar.
  • Reason: Great for high-volume and professional-looking text printing, though check the specific model for small paper size compatibility.

HP DeskJet Series

  • Models: HP DeskJet 3755 All-in-One or similar.
  • Reason: Compact and affordable for occasional use with custom paper sizes.

HP Smart Tank Series

  • Models: HP Smart Tank 7300 or similar.
  • Reason: Eco-friendly and cost-efficient for high-volume printing with support for custom sizes.

How to Set Up Printing on 3" x 5" Cards:

Paper Handling:

  • Use the manual feed tray or adjustable paper guides to load the cards.
  • Ensure the paper is flat and properly aligned to avoid jams.

Printer Settings:

  • In the print settings, select "Custom Size" and input the dimensions (3" x 5").
  • Use the Avery index card template if you're using their program.

Program Compatibility:

  • Avery's software works seamlessly with many HP printers, and their templates are supported by Microsoft Word, which integrates well with HP drivers.

Testing:

  • Print a test page to ensure alignment and adjust settings as needed.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
