The following table lists the dimensions and weight of the HP printing materials. For front panel names and ink compatibility, see supported printing materials. For part numbers and regional availability, see ordering printing materials.

Always print on the image side with the special coating; the image side always faces outward on roll products from HP.

From time to time new HP printing materials will become available and the printer will not have their media profiles. If you want to use one of these new materials, you should obtain the correct profile and add it to the printer's software. See how do I download media profiles?.
