Hello,
I just bought HP Q2510A Everyday Glossy Standard Fotopapier for my new Envy 5010. I've read "Your HP printer should have a setting called Everyday glossy which will be a match for this product that you bought and should give you a good result." the customer questions. But my Printer doesn't have this option. Now I dont know what setting I should choose. Any help pls ? 🙂
Regards !
This thread shows how many options I could have. https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Inkjet-Printing/Transparency-Film/td-p/6288948

The reference thread is perhaps for a different printer.
Product Specifications for the HP ENVY 5010 All-in-One Printer (M2U85B)
Media types | Plain Paper; HP Photo Papers; HP Matte Brochure or Professional Paper; HP Matte Presentation Paper; HP Glossy Brochure or Professional Paper; Other Photo Inkjet Papers; Other Matte Inkjet Papers; Other Glossy Inkjet Papers; Plain Paper; Light/Recycled |
Look for something in your print dialog that is similar to what you need.
Even HP photo (foto) papers might be close enough.
The main point is to differentiate between Brochure paper and Photo (foto) paper when selecting your Media type (kind of paper).

Click Modify (wording varies), set the paper size and type, Click OK
