Hi, I tried to print transparencies on that printer, but it will not work. I did not find any hint in the manual.

Is there any way to get the printer print transperencies?

 

Thanks for help

Stephan

Transparencies are not supported on 477dw.

 

I have never tried but I wonder what happens when you load transparency for an inkjet printer in 477dw?

That is really disappointing. At least I would expect that HP mentions this in the documentation. If one buys an inkjet printer he simply expects that tranparanices can be printed unless nothing else is said.

If you fill the printer with a transparancy it will pull it half way in and than stops working. It's like a paper jam you have to remove.
