Stating that,

"From: 
http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/sm/WF05a/18972-18972-236251-14438-3328074-468001.html

[HP Deskjet 6940 Printer] "Media sensor detects paper type and
automatically sets print quality to ensure optimal results"

So it does seem possible (especially when the same company makes both
the sensor and the paper)."

is *not *answering a "*GENERAL*" question. I could the same with quoting from 
the manual for my printer.

The piece of equipment in question is the *F2280.

*Have we got this clear?

And as another person pointed out, "paper *TYPE*" - repeat, "*TYPE*, repeat, 
"*TYPE*" - and *not* paper *manufacturer*.

What "*link*"?

Please quote *exact* link, thank you.

Ah, you really mean *Brian *(White), don't you?

And as I responded to Brian, what I wrote answered your question(s)
quite adequately.

Even here you do not seem to understand what is written in the English
language.

Tell me *exactly*, according to *your* logic, where I did not address
the question - that is to your way of thinking, 'IRRELEVANT' - of where
one could find an "official" statement saying anything different to what
an "official" product manual - like the one for the HP Deskjet F2280 -
states, which is what your post was asking for?

If you, or Lynn, cannot read the F2280 manual and understand what is
written there then it is not mine or anyone else's problem who
participates in this mail list.

I understand.

But who keeps quoting irrelevant material?

So why can't you simply read the F2280 manual and stop coming up here
with "questions" which are not only answered in the manual but would
also be answered in the HP forum or by the HP Support department (for
example http://welcome.hp.com/country/uk/en/support.html)?


BTW, Tejas asked Lynn some very succinct questions.

They were very much spot on.

What her answers will be depends on how much she understands the manual
for her F2280.

What you may contribute to what Tejas asked will be totally immaterial -
unless you have read and understood the F2280 manual. (So far: Manual
10; Marco 0.)

[At this point I must apologise to you, Marco, for earlier referring to
you as 'Mauro' :-( . My wife (I am married to an Italian girl) has a
cousin, Mauro C******i, who lives in Trieste, Italy, and I somehow used
his name instead of yours in an earlier post. Mea culpa! :-( ]
