Hi @stetupme,

 

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

 

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

 

I understand you want to know the best-performing photo paper for HP ENVY 5530 PRINTER

 

The HP ENVY 5530 printer is a versatile inkjet printer capable of producing decent-quality photo prints. When it comes to selecting photo paper for your printer, several factors come into play including paper thickness, finish, and compatibility with your printer's ink system.

For the HP ENVY 5530 printer, you can achieve good results with HP's own photo paper products. HP offers various options for photo paper that are designed to work optimally with their printers, including the ENVY series. 

 

You can consider the following HP photo paper options:

 

HP Advanced Photo Paper: This paper is a popular choice for inkjet photo printing. It offers a glossy finish and provides good color reproduction.

HP Premium Plus Photo Paper: This paper is a higher-end option with an even glossier finish and enhanced durability. It's thicker and has a heavier weight compared to the Advanced Photo Paper, providing a more premium feel to your prints.

Both of these options should be easily found for purchase either online or at major office supply stores. When purchasing photo paper, make sure to check the paper size and compatibility with your printer to ensure the best results. Additionally, it's always a good idea to refer to the printer's manual or specifications to see if there are any specific recommendations regarding paper types and weights.
