Troubleshooting
Stamp not making a clear impression.
Ensure the rubber surface is clean and free of dried ink. Apply even pressure when stamping. Check that the ink pad is not overloaded or dried out.
Ink is smudging after stamping.
Allow the ink to dry completely on the paper before touching it. If using very absorbent paper, try a faster-drying ink or a different paper type. Ensure you are using sufficient pressure but not excessive rocking which can spread the ink.
Uneven ink coverage.
Gently roll the stamp onto the ink pad rather than pressing directly down. If using a pigment ink pad, ensure it is properly re-inked or replaced if it's old.
