How to Install HP 20-lb Bond with ColorPRO Technology

Proper loading and setup are essential to harvest the full benefits of this media. Follow these practical steps to ensure smooth feeding, accurate color, and consistent results for every job.

• Power down and prepare: Turn off the HP PageWide XL printer and allow it to cool before handling media rolls. Gather the two 40" x 500' rolls and inspect for any visible damage.
• Check media specifications: Confirm that the printer is configured for 20-lb bond stock and that ColorPRO settings are enabled for optimal color rendering and consistency.
• Load the roll: Place the roll on the media spindle or feed system as per your printer’s manual. Ensure the roll is loaded in the correct orientation (unwind direction aligned with the printer’s feed path) and that the leading edge is straight and free of tears.
• Configure print settings: In the printer driver or management software, select 20-lb bond, 40" width, and the ColorPRO profile if available. Adjust tone, contrast, and color management to suit the job specifications, then perform a printer alignment if prompted.
• Calibrate and test: Run a short calibration print or a small test page to verify color accuracy, feed stability, and edge alignment. If adjustments are needed, re-check media guides and re-run the alignment until the output is consistent.
• Operate and store: Once prints meet quality standards, continue production. Store the unused roll in a cool, dry place, preferably in its original packaging or a bulk tub pallet if available, to preserve media performance for future jobs.
