Paper is too thick for my printers
Dana Enders, May 29, 2026
I have two different HP printers and this paper is too thick for both of them. Even using manual feed is a problem. The printers can’t not grab the paper edge consistently and I am wasting so much of it trying to make greeting cards. I love the weight and feel of the thick paper but will need to try something thinner. For reference I have an HP Envy 6000 and an HP Deskjet 2800 which has a manual feed option.
Wonderful prints

I did some research before choosing this paper for my art prints. And I haven't been disappointed. The colors come out so vibrant. It's still not the original, but the colors really pop! I'm a repeat customer, and I'll keep coming back for paper for my art prints and cards!
