HP Photo Paper
What Size HP Photo Paper Can I Use In My Printer?
HP aren't as clear as other manufacturers in setting a common weight limit in their printers. All Photosmarts and Deskjets can handle different weights and size maximums. Your best bet is to check your printer spec or manual for the limits. If you can't find them you can use the below points as a rule of thumb:
- Nearly all printers take up to 200gsm weight paper
- If your model has photo in the name, or takes more than 4 colours, it will likely manage up to 270gsm
- Most models can use 6x4, 10x15 and A4 size paper
- Anything more specific must be checked in the manual!
What Are The Different HP Photo Papers To Buy Online?
HP simplified their photo paper to two primary ranges you can choose from.
HP Everyday Photo Paper is made from recycled material and is perfect for, well, everyday printing! They give great, cheap, results but there is no true focus on longevity in the prints. If you want something on display for years, this isn't for you. If you're a typical home user printing photos, the everyday photo paper is great.
HP Advanced Photo Paper is their more advanced paper for users who want to focus on quality and long-lasting prints. With a true focus on longevity and unbeatable print quality, any size of Advanced Photo paper is meant for prints you really want to treasure and show off.
