Troubleshooting
Paper jams in printer
Ensure the paper is correctly loaded and not overloaded in the paper tray. Verify your printer's settings match the paper weight (160gsm). Try printing a single sheet to test.
Color appears different on screen than when printed
Screen calibration can affect color display. Printer ink and the card's surface also influence the final output. Test print a small swatch for accurate color representation.
Ink smudging after printing
Allow freshly printed sheets to dry completely before handling. Ensure you are using compatible ink types for your printer and the card surface. Some inks may require a longer drying time on thicker cardstock.
