I am trying to print on cardstock and my f*ing printer keeps on jamming! I changed the paper to 'specialty paper' but my printer refuses to do it!!
I have a newer HP 2710 printer so I dunno what the F*ing problem is. Maybe my printer is still mad at me for making it print my invites, I dunno.
What do I do?????????

Re: Printing HELP!!
Can you try turning it the other way? Like if it's wide, make it long (or the reverse)? Maybe unplug it and then plug it back in. I'm the printer whisperer so even though these things may SEEM silly, they just might work.

Re: Printing HELP!!
It depends on the weight of the cardstock, some printers can only handle up to a certain weight (thickness) if you have the manual it should have the specifications detailing the maximum paper weight that it can handle.

Its 8.5X11 cardstock but its a little thicker than my other cardstock. DO you think that I could bring it to Kinkos or one of those places? Anyoen know if their printers handle this stuff??
