◦Media that is heavily textured, embossed, or does not accept ink well
◦Media that is too lightweight or stretches easily
•Do not leave media in the input tray overnight. This might cause it to bend.
•Remove each sheet of media as it prints and set aside to dry. Allowing wet media to stack up might cause smearing.
•For instructions on calibrating color, see Calibrate color.
Cards and envelopes
•Avoid envelopes that have a very slick finish,
•Use tightly constructed envelopes, and make sure the folds are sharply creased.
•Always load envelopes into the printer with the flap facing the back of the printer and the stamp position oriented according to the envelope icon.
Photo media
•Use the Best mode to print photographs. Note that in this mode, printing takes longer and more memory is required from your computer.
•Remove each sheet as it prints and set it aside to dry. Allowing wet media to stack up may cause smearing.
•Photo paper should be flat before printing. If the corners of the photo paper curl more than 10 mm (3/8 inch), flatten the paper by putting it in a resealable plastic bag, and roll them into a tube. Roll the sheets so the curve of the tube is in the opposite direction of the original curl of the paper. Roll the tube no smaller than a 1.5 inch (4 cm) in diameter.
