How to Install HP Matte Litho-Realistic Paper, 3-in Core - 36"X100'

  • Confirm your printer supports 36" wide media and a 3" core before loading.
  • Prepare the roll: trim the leading edge square to reduce skew and ensure smooth feeding.
  • Load the roll onto the printer’s media carriage, ensuring the edge feeds straight and the roll unwinds freely without resistance.
  • Set the media type in the printer driver to a matte, litho-realistic surface if available, and verify color-management settings align with your workflow (ICC profiles or Java-based color calibration if applicable).
  • Feed a small test strip to verify alignment, edge curl, and color accuracy. Adjust margin settings and rollers if necessary to prevent banding or misfeeds.
  • Print a calibration sheet or proof, inspect for consistency, and then proceed with production runs. Allow prints to dry in a dust-free environment before handling or mounting.
  • Store unused portion of the roll in its protective packaging in a cool, dry place to maintain color stability and paper integrity.
