To keep your paper in good condition for printing:
● Store the photo paper in its original packaging or in a resealable plastic bag.
● Keep the paper flat in a cool, dry place. If the corners curl, place the paper in a
plastic bag and gently bend it in the opposite direction until it lies flat.
● Hold photo paper by the edges to avoid smears.
