What kind of printer do you have -- laser or inkjet? Did you get the proper type of vellum for your printer? You may also have to adjust the printer settings so that it knows it is picking up heavier paper. In the page setup of whatever application you are using, there should be some type of option to specify the type of paper being printed on.

Sometimes it depends on the type of printer in relation to the type of vellum. They make vellum that is supposed to work well for ink jet printers and I find that most vellum works well with the laser printers. What are you using the vellum for? Sometimes I find that cutting strips and taping them to regular paper to print helps...although I would prefer to see that the regular vellum sheet goes through. My advice would be to start off playing with the manual feed settings and checking the label on the vellum package.

I recommend feeding one vellum paper at a time - it's time consuming but that is what I do because it's the only way it will work......what I also do is when you press the print icon you then have the options of printing more than one copy.......I usually say to print 20 at once but feed the vellum one at a time....I wait until the printer tells me it's out of paper and then put another vellum in.....it's sounds time consuming but it's easier for me and it works - plus, with my printer I feed the paper on top so it's not much of a hassle.

Good Luck!!
