    The paper is like 12pt really thick and I've tried all paper and ink settings and it just seems like the ink doesn't absorb fast enough or something. I can't imagine the paper isn't made for printing onto. The non - glossy side prints fine. It's actually cut from standard 22x28" poster board you can pick up at any store. Shopped high and low to find a printer that would take paper this thick (that I'm using for nice sturdy postcards) and am delighted to finally have found something that could take this. But this one issue. Any ideas? Remember I just took it out of the box last night. Functions great otherwise. And I'm brand spanking new here, so hello nice to meet ya and glad to be here
