Media Tray HP LaserJet Color 550-sheet

The HP LaserJet Color 550-sheet Media Tray increases paper capacity for compatible HP LaserJet printers, providing a dedicated additional tray that holds up to 500 sheets. With compact external dimensions it integrates alongside the main printer unit to reduce interruptions for reloading paper and to support higher-volume print runs in office and enterprise environments. The tray is manufactured to meet HP compatibility and reliability expectations and is suitable for standard office papers and typical media weights accepted by the host printer.

Advantages

The additional 550-sheet tray reduces the frequency of manual paper refills and supports uninterrupted printing for longer jobs. Its compact footprint allows installation without substantially increasing the printer’s overall footprint. Built for compatibility with HP LaserJet models, the tray helps streamline workflow by enabling preloaded paper types or sizes so users can switch between jobs more efficiently. The design also supports organized media handling and can contribute to smoother, higher-throughput operation in busy workgroups.

Suitable for

• Office environments with medium to high daily print volumes
• Workgroups that require multiple paper types or sizes preloaded
• Enterprise settings where minimizing operator intervention is desired
• Print rooms that need to consolidate supply refills and maintain uptime

How to use

Install the media tray according to the instructions provided with your HP LaserJet printer model by powering down the printer if required, aligning the tray with the printer’s tray bay, and sliding it into position until it locks. Load paper into the tray, ensuring the paper guides are adjusted to the correct size and that the stack does not exceed the maximum capacity. After installation, check the printer’s control panel or driver settings to confirm the tray is detected and to assign paper type and size for print jobs as needed.

Recommendations

Use high-quality, properly cut paper within the weight range specified by the printer to avoid jams. Keep the tray free of dust and moisture, reload paper before it reaches very low levels to prevent feed issues, and follow periodic maintenance guidance in the printer manual for reliable long-term operation.
