Solving specialty media problems

The following topics can help solve problems with specialty media.

Glossy/photo papers or transparencies stick together

Use glossy/photo paper or transparency designed for inkjet printers.

Make sure you loaded the paper correctly (with print side facing you) and selected the
appropriate settings in the printer software. For help, see “Printing photos” on page 17 or
“Printing transparencies” on page 39.

You can also set extra time between pages as they exit the printer. For help, see the entry
“Wait for pages to dry” on page 11.

Remove each page as it exits the printer, and then let it dry completely before stacking.
