I used A4 double sided 250g paper: https://discountoffice.nl/p/mrink112-mediar-fotopapier-a4-weiss/
This paper has problems on my HP ENVY Photo 6200. Especially if the 2nd side is printed.
1. I first print one side. 80% prints printed correctly.
2. Turn paper
3. Print the other side. 20% is printed correctly.
Besides: Double sided printing option is definitely not possible with this paper. It cannot turn it.
The paper seems to 'sticky' to me for my printer and looks like having problems in paper transportation.
What can i do? Is there suitable double sided 250g paper that i can use?

Hello,
Your printer supports A4 printing with the weight of 75 to 90 g/m² maximum.
Therefore, I recommend that you use lighter weight A4 paper, to avoid paper jams or paper feed problems and premature wear of the print rollers etc.
Do not hesitate to contact us in case of need.
Best regards,

Thanks for your return,
To avoid paper jams, do not print on both sides of transparencies, envelopes, photo paper, or glossy paper. Do not print on paper lighter than 60 g/m² (16 lb) and paper heavier than 105 g/m² (28 lb).
Do not hesitate to contact us in case of need.
Best regards,

I bought this printer to print cards on heavy paper. It seems that HP modifies specifications depending on the problems user run into. Besides on HP double sided C6818A A4 180g/m2 https://www.office-deals.nl/p/inkjetpapier-c6818a-glans-brochure-flyer-50vel does a proper job.

@liesem,
To avoid problems with double-sided printing, you can use paper of up to 105 g/m².
You will find below the paper compatible with your printer:

From the HP Store you can get an idea of the type of paper you want.
