Hallo...

I recently purchased glossy paper for printing, but my normal printer seems to be having trouble with it. Despite adjusting settings and trying different paper types, the prints come out smudged or faded. I'm unsure if my printer is compatible with glossy paper or if there's a specific workaround needed.

Many inkjet and laser printers are compatible with glossy paper, allowing you to create beautiful prints with vivid colors and crisp details.

To ensure optimal results, simply select the appropriate 'glossy paper' setting in your printer's options before printing. So, normal printer print on glossy paper. Best of luck for your project.

Printing on glossy paper can be challenging with a regular printer because it often requires special ink or settings. First, check if your printer supports glossy paper this info should be in the manual or specs. If it does, set the paper type to "Glossy" or "Photo Paper" in your printer settings and ensure you’re using compatible ink.

If the prints still smudge, it might help to use quick dry ink or allow the prints to dry completely before handling. For the best results, consider using a printer designed for photo or high quality printing. Hope this helps!
