Guidelines for Printing on Glossy Cardstock

You can print on glossy cardstock from Tray 1 or from the manual feed slot.

For glossy cardstock over 163 g/m2, select HW Gloss Card mode. For cardstock lighter than 163 g/m2, select LW Gloss Card.

Do not perform automatic 2-sided printing using glossy cardstock.

Do not open sealed packages of glossy cardstock until you are ready to load them into the printer.

Leave glossy cardstock in the original wrapper and store unopened packages in the original shipping carton until ready to use.

Remove all other paper from the tray before loading glossy cardstock.

Load only the amount of glossy cardstock you plan to use, and remove the unused portion from the tray when you are finished printing. Put the unused glossy cardstock back in the original wrapper and seal it for later use.

Rotate stock frequently. Long periods of storage in extreme conditions can cause glossy cardstock to curl and jam the printer.
