:( printer and paper problem

[MK71809]

Morning everyone, I'm so bummed. I couldn't wait 2 get started on my save the dates, I searched for templates, designed them, ordered paper n envelops n have finally received my goods.... ONLY 2 find out that the paper is too thick n won't print in my printer!!!!!! I'm so annoyed n bummed. I'm using an HP that pulls from below (if that makes sense) I'm wondering if a top feed will work?! But now I have 2 wait until 10am (its 7am my time) for staples 2 open so I can run n get ink for that printer, plus it's an Epson n I'm not 2 fond of them :-/ uggggg have any of u experienced this problem n what did u end up doing? Thanks~ Kara

Did you change the printer settings to cardstock?  I had the same problem until I played around with the settings.  I have an HP printer and mine kept jamming until I found a setting that worked.

HP Deskjet All in One F4280, the only thing I had problem with was the ink smudging on the pearlized paper, had to let everything sit for a long time to dry completely.

You can take the paper and the design to Staples or Office Max and they will print them for you for a small fee.
