Print on index cards and other small media
Guidelines
• Use only cards and small media that meet the printer paper-size specifications.
• Do not exceed the paper tray capacity when loading media. For more information,
see “
Printer specifications” on page 81.
• Print quality decreases when printing on plain paper such as index cards. This is to
be expected and does not indicate a problem. Printing on plain paper is useful for
print jobs, such as drafts, where print quality is not important.
Prepare to print
1. Verify the printer is turned on.
2. Load paper. For more information, see the “
Paper basics” on page 19 section.

dialog box” on page 39.
2. Click the Features tab, and then specify the following print settings:
• Paper Type: Plain Paper
• Size: An appropriate card size
3. Select any other print settings that you want, and then click OK.
Use the What's This? help to learn about the features that you see on the Printer
Properties dialog box. For more information, see “
What's This? help” on page 40.
NOTE: If an out-of-paper message is displayed, see “Paper basics” on page 19 for
