| Print the document. Remove the media from the printer as it prints to prevent it from sticking together, and place the printed pages on a flat surface.
The media type can also be selected and configured in HP ToolboxFX. To configure these media types from HP ToolboxFX, click Device Settings, click the System Settings tab, and then open the Print Modes page. Make any necessary changes, and then click Apply to save the changes.
To print a single-page cover letter on letterhead, followed by a multiple-page document, load a single sheet of letterhead in Tray 1. After the letterhead page has printed, the printer prompts you to load paper. Load paper for the rest of the document.
