Hardware description
The HP LaserJet 1010 printer provides 600 x 600 dpi printing. The HP LaserJet 1012, 1015, and 1020 printers offer HP REt technology for 600 x 600 x 2 dpi printing (effectively 1200 dpi). The printers print at 12 ppm (HP LaserJet 1010) or 15 ppm for letter-size paper and 14 ppm for A4-size paper (HP LaserJet 1012, 1015, and 1020). With 600 dpi printing for the HP LaserJet 1010 printer and an effective 1200 dpi printing resolution for the other models, the printers have exceptional text and graphics print quality. The simple control panels and improved paper-handling make these printers easy to use. The main input tray has a 150-sheet (75-g/m2 [20-lb] media) capacity for continuous, multiple-page printing. The priority feed slot is used to manually feed single sheets of most recommended media and holds up to ten sheets of 75-g/m2 (20-lb) media. Both the main input tray and the priority feed slot are center-justified for all supported media sizes. The output bin holds up to 125 sheets of 75-g/m2 (20-lb) media. These printers have a very fast first-page-out, at less than 10 seconds to first page out. The base memory contains 8 MB of RAM for the HP LaserJet 1010 series printers and 2 MB for the HP LaserJet 1020 printer. These printers use an embedded 133 MHz processor. The print engine has an average duty cycle of 1,000 pages per month (7,000 peak) or 50,000 total pages printed. The standard print-cartridge life is 2,000 pages, in accordance with ISO/IEC 19752. NOTE Actual print cartridge life depends on specific usage.

Guidelines for using media
HP LaserJet printers produce documents that have excellent print quality. They can print on a variety of media types, such as paper (including up to 100% recycled fiber content paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies, and custom-sized media.
Paper and transparencies
Paper must be of good quality and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, holes, and curled or bent edges. Check the label on the paper package for details about the type of paper (such as bond or recycled). Some paper causes print-quality problems, jamming, or damage to the printer. NOTE Do not use letterhead that is printed with low-temperature inks, such as those used in some types of thermography, raised letterhead, or colored paper or preprinted forms that use inks incompatible with the printer temperature, which is 200°C (392°F) for 0.1 second. Transparencies must be able to withstand 200°C (392°F), the maximum print temperature.
Common media problems table
Symptom Poor print quality or toner adhesion, or problems with feeding Problem with paper Too moist, too rough, too smooth, embossed, or from a faulty paper lot The correct media type is not selected in the Printer Properties dialog box. Dropouts, jamming, or curl Increased gray background shading Excessive curl, or problems with feeding Jamming, or damage to printer Stored improperly Might be too heavy Too moist, wrong grain direction, or short-grain construction Cutouts or perforations Damaged media Do not use media that has been previously run through a printer or copier. Problems with feeding Moisture on the trailing edge of the paper Ragged edges Too moist (media is steaming when it exits the printer) Use good-quality paper. Store paper in a low humidity area or air tight container or change the media type to light. Solution Try another kind of paper that is between 100 and 250 Sheffield and has 4% to 6% moisture content. Select the correct media type. See Setting media types on page 26. Store paper flat in its moisture-proof wrapping. Use lighter paper. Use long-grain paper or change the media type to light. Do not use paper that has cutouts or perforations.

Chapter 2 Installation and operation
ENWW
Labels
When selecting labels, consider the following factors: Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 200°C (392°F), the printer's maximum temperature. Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams. Curl: Before printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (0.5 inch) of curl in any direction. Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation. Never use a sheet of labels that has already been sent through the printer.
Envelopes
Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary considerably, not only between manufacturers but also within a box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on envelopes depends on the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors: Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 105 g/m2 (28 lb), or jamming might result. Construction: Before printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 6 mm (0.25 inch) curl and should not contain air. Envelopes that trap air may cause problems. Condition: Make sure that the envelopes are not wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged. Sizes: From 90 x 160 mm (3.5 x 6.3 inches) to 178 x 254 mm (7 x 10 inches).
Store envelopes flat. If air is trapped in an envelope, creating an air bubble, the envelope might wrinkle during printing.
Envelopes with double-side seams
An envelope with double-side-seam construction (vertical seams at both ends of the envelope rather than diagonal seams) is more likely to wrinkle. Make sure the seam extends all the way to the corner of the envelope as shown in top figure of the following illustration:
ENWW
Guidelines for using media
23
Envelopes with adhesive strips or flaps
Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the heat and pressure in the printer: 200°C (392°F). The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams.
Card stock and heavy media
For optimum performance, do not use paper heavier than 157-g/m 2 (42-lb). Paper that is too heavy might cause misfeeds, stacking problems, jams, poor toner fusing, poor print quality, or excessive mechanical wear.
Card-stock construction
Smoothness: 135- to 157-g/m2 (36- to 42-lb) card stock should have a smoothness rating of 100 to 180 Sheffield. 60- to135-g/m2 (16- to 36-lb) card stock should have a smoothness rating of 100 to 250 Sheffield. Construction: Card stock should lie flat with less than 5 mm (0.2 inch) of curl. Condition: Make sure that the card stock is not wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged. Sizes: Only use card stock within the following size ranges: Minimum: 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches) Maximum: 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches)
Card-stock guidelines
Set margins at least 2 mm (0.08 inch) away from the edges.

Chapter 2 Installation and operation
ENWW
Loading media
Loading media in the HP LaserJet 1010 series printers and the HP LaserJet 1020 printer is simple and straightforward. This section describes loading bulk media to print.
Main input tray
The main input tray holds up to 150 sheets of 75-g/m2 (20-lb) paper or a 25 mm (0.98 inch) stack of heavier media. Load media with the top forward and the side to be printed on facing up. To prevent jams and skew, always adjust the side and rear media guides.
Priority feed slot
Use the priority feed slot to feed a single sheet of a recommended media for manual feeding and special operations. It can hold up to ten pages of 75-g/m2 (20-lb) paper, but is best used for feeding one sheet at a time of paper, heavier paper (163-g/m2 [42-lb]), or card stock, or a single envelope or transparency. Load media with the top forward and the side to be printed facing up. To prevent jams and skew, always adjust the side media guides. If you try to print on media that is wrinkled, folded, or damaged in any way, a jam might occur. See Jams on page 42. NOTE When you add new media, make sure that you remove all of the media from the input tray and straighten the stack of new media. This helps prevent multiple sheets of media from feeding through the printer at one time, and therefore reduces jams.
Specific types of media
Transparencies and labels: Load transparencies and labels with the top forward and the side to be printed facing up. See the user guide for more information. Envelopes: Load envelopes with the narrow, stamp side forward and the side to be printed facing up. See the user guide for more information. Letterhead or preprinted forms: Load with the top forward and the side to be printed facing up. See the user guide for more information. Cards and custom-sized media: Load with the narrow side forward and the side to be printed facing up. See the user guide for more information.

Cleaning the print path
The HP LJ 1010 series and the HP LaserJet 1020 printer feature a special cleaning mode to clean the paper path. NOTE This process requires using a transparency to remove dust and toner from the print paper path. Do not use bond or rough paper. Make sure that the transparency that is used in this cleaning process meets the media requirements for the printer. If transparency film is unavailable, use copier-grade paper (70 to 90 g/m2, or 18 to 24 lb) that has a smooth surface. If you must use paper, perform the procedure two or three times to ensure thorough cleaning. 1 2 3 Make sure that the printer is idle and the READY light is on. Load the media in the input tray. Follow the appropriate step below to process the cleaning page. HP LaserJet 1010 series printer: Open the HP Toolbox. Click the Troubleshooting tab, and then click Print Quality Tools. Select the cleaning page. HP LaserJet 1020 printer: Open the Printer Properties dialog box. Click the Configure tab, and then select Start in the Cleaning Page box. Follow the instructions in the Cleaning Utility dialog box. NOTE HP LJ 1010 series printers: The cleaning process can also be initiated by holding down the GO button for at least 12.5 seconds (for information about other printer pages, see Controlpanel pages (HP LaserJet 1010 series printers only) on page 101. The cleaning process takes approximately 3 minutes. The cleaning page stops periodically during the cleaning process. Do not turn the printer off until the cleaning process has been completed. You might need to repeat the cleaning process
