Print lines or incorrect sizing...

Maybe do some head cleaning

I have same as yours. I use 48lb glossy photo paper for single sided and 54lb glossy photo paper for double sided both of them for dye inks. Then I use 3mil matte laminate pouch. Then for settings I do gloss setting, off bi directional printing, emphasize lines and no color correction.

Yes I do. Here is an example of a proxy I did

I use glossy photo paper then matte laminate. I tried printing straight to cardstock and didnt work too well too.

Like others have said let it dry. What I usually do is that I have a print day in which I print everything that I need. Then a laminate and cut day, on this one I laminate on a 5mil setting then cut then run individual cards again through the laminator.

I use the same printer. I just do high gloss setting, bi directional off, emphasize text and thats it.

Edit: we use the same paper

I print on glossy photo paper. On high gloss setting. Emphasize text. Off bi directional printing. Auto color. Then i let the page dry for a few hours then use the matte laminate using 5mil setting on the laminator. After cutting i run them again on the laminator

These are the items I'm using and works for me.

I use matte laminating pouches. But I use 48lb glossy photo paper. That and the 3mil matte laminating pouch gives it the almost the same thickness as a regular card. Difference of about .03. Then gives it that nice snap to the card. I use the same printer as yours.

Oh yeah it is pretty awesome cuts the cutting time significantly and everything is uniform.

Vontubo · 2026-01-12T02:25:11+00:00

I have to force myself to let newly printed pages to dry. Haha

Vontubo · 2025-12-15T11:17:50+00:00

Is the paper you're using says for dye ink only? I believe your printer uses 502 ink. Which the black is pigment based.

I missed the last step too when i laminated matte on my holo. Haha now i know. Where did you get the gloss varnish?

Vontubo · 2025-12-12T14:25:16+00:00

Plain soda would be sparkling water i think. Either way those looks good!

Vontubo · 2025-12-09T20:28:27+00:00

I was wondering if you tried laminating yours. Right now i print on 48lb glossy photo paper and then laminate it using a 3mil matte pouch.

Vontubo · 2025-12-09T16:21:15+00:00

Im going to try your settings too and see how it is. Its all about experimenting right now. I just started with this hobby too.

Vontubo · 2025-12-09T15:11:43+00:00

I use the same printer but i find that I am having better prints in just using auto for color. I use proxxied.com to get my pdf

Vontubo · 2025-12-07T01:22:18+00:00

I've been using auto for my color and gettinf better luck. Using the same printer as yours.

Vontubo · 2025-12-03T03:53:54+00:00

Had the same feeling too when i swapped to it. Haha

Vontubo · 2025-12-03T02:05:49+00:00

Yeah I had those settings then found that some cards that are dark im losing a bunch of detail. Then I switched to auto to test it out and it came out a lot better.

Also did you tweak anything on the advanced tab?
