Two things:

1. make sure that the paper is designed for Laser printers and not Inkjet printers

2. You need to set the Paper type on the printer, ,through the control panel to glossy paper type. This slows down the printer down and increases the fuser temperature to ensure the print bonds properly.

I see HP Glossy 120g, HP Glossy 150g, HP TriGlossy 150g, HP Glossy 200g, X-Hvy Glossy 131-175g, Card Glossy 176 - 220g for the 'glossy' settings.  Are these for another printer?  I have an HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M281fdw.  

Only 3 color cartridges are in this printer and one black cartridge.  Are the other cartridges for inkjets?  I want to create printed copies of scanned family photos.
