Chapter 3 ◦ 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, self-stick adhesives, clasps, or windows. Also avoid cards and envelopes with thick, irregular, or curled edges, or areas that are wrinkled, torn, or otherwise damaged. • 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. 20 Use the device
