Problems printing perforated greeting card with PS D7260

I'm making Christmas cards on photo quality note paper - 2/page. When I print the second side, the paper gets stuck and the perforation comes apart and I have jam. One half jammed and the other half in the paper feed. With my previous printer (I think it was a 8190 - not sure) I never had a problem. How can this be correct? I hate the thought of printing my cards on half fold photo quality card paper and having to cut.
Any suggestions?

I would suggest detaching the cards before printing.  Break the cards in half and then load them in the printer.  Select the proper paper size for the half cards.

  • HT4007 printing greeting cards with 7" width & 5" height

    I print photos on greeting cards with specific dimensions: each greeting card is 7 inches in width & 10 inches in height; each is scored in the middle allowing me to print 2 (5x7") photos per card. Whenever a photo is printed it is not in a landscape mode. It seems to me that Aperture is defaulted to print 5x7" photos with the width being 5" & the height 7". I place the greeting card into the printer with the width being 7" & the height 5" with the orientation being in the portrait mode. To date, I have had no luck printing a photo with the correct orientation on the greeting card.

    Have you tried to edit a custom print preset like the above? Page size 10x7 inches,
    image siz 5x7, 2 rows, one column, orientation landscape, no borders?
    Works for me.

  • Trying to print a greeting card side fold all in one 6200

    I have  a project using Microsoft Publisher 2007. I'm trying to print a greeting card that is a side fold. The only options I see in the print set up page is "one page or side fold quarter page". I have been able to print a card like this before and have not been able to see what settings I need to change. I know that I have to print both sides so I have to manualy turn the card paper over to print the other side. I have tried to find a answer with vista help, no luck.

    Is there really no way? The box or instructions or somewhere it says you can "print greeting cards at home."

  • Can Anyone Tell Me How to Create Greeting Cards with Photoshop Elements 7 or 8?

    I need a 7x10 page setup so that when the card is folded to a 5x7 my photo is landscape on the outside of the card.  Currently I can only find a 8 1/2 x 11 paper size.
    Thanks,

    In Photoshop Elements 8 Editor, go to the Create tab, and you will see Greeting card, with 5x7 page size.

  • When I print a greeting card, it comes out as 2 separate pages and not afolding card--why?d

    When I try to print out a greeting card, it comes out as 2 separate sheets and not as a card that opens when unfolded.  Where am I going wrong? Thanks. Mac

    Actually you can't.  When you print directly from iPhoto you will need to print to a 8 x 10 borderless paper size.  That will produce the card with a white border on each size which can be trimmed off after printing. This screen shot shows how the card will print on 8" x 10" stock:

    This is because the stock size for the card is 10 x 7 and no printer supports 10 x 7 borderless printing.  These two tutorials describes how to print the card if you have a 3rd party image editor that can handle layers or have Pages from iWork: #8 - Printing a iPhoto Greeting Card and #8a - Printing a iPhoto Greeting Card to Standard Stock Sizes.

  • Problems printing labels and envelopes with related names

    When I try and print out labels for Christmas cards from Address Book, the program creates the first line of the label with the name on the Address Book "card", plus the names of the "Related Name" entries on the card. This works for most cards except in the following situation.
    The Related Name field (Spouse, Child, etc.) does a 'fuzzy lookup' to match other cards in the Address Book database. If there is another card with the same name as one of the related names, the address is checked to see if the address matches. If it matches (or if there is no card that matches the related name), Address Book will include the related name on address labels. (Address information is required for this test since Address Book will not print a label for a card that does not have and address.) This was the source of my first problem as I had a card for a related name that had an old address on it, so Address Book chose not to print that related name on the labels as they did not live at the same address. I agree with this logic.
    The real problem is revealed when you add a related name to a card in which the first name of the related name matches the first name of another card which is NOT the same person. So I have a card for "John Hart", and on that card I have two relate names, a Spouse of "Nancy Hart" and a Child of "Eric Hart". I also have a card for "Nancy Hart" with a Spouse of "John Hart" and a child of "Eric Hart" and the address matches that on the card of "John Hart". If I print a label for "John Hart", Address Book properly prints "John, Nancy and Eric Hart". Now if I add a card for "Eric Smith" and either have a different address or no address at all on that card, when I print a label for "John Hart" Address Book will print "John and Nancy Hart", effectively losing the child. I can only think that Apple made the search for related cards TOO FUZZY and forgot to include the last name in the search.
    Apple... are you out there? Please help!!!
    PS: My full database has many records that are incurring this problem, and it's annoying.

    After going through 3 2nd level support personnel, I finally reached one who cared enough to actually type in what I asked him to, and then to research the findings.
    As I pointed out above, Address Book compares the related names with the other cards in the database. If there is no card for the specific related name, Address Book will stop at a record with a matching first name and then compare addresses. If the addresses do not match, it will not print the related name. The support rep stated that hopefully in future version this might be refined.
    AS A WORKAROUND, he suggested I create cards for any of the related names on my cards. Once this is done, and the cards have matching addresses, all of the related names on the selected card for label or envelope printing are printed.

  • Can i use avery or hallmark blank greeting cards with pages?

    I would like to make my own greeting cards using commercially available cards and templates, such as avery or hallmark's products, or plain cardstock.  I'd appreciate any how-to advice on this subject,   the simpler the better.

    Stick the stock in the printer.
    Download the Word templates from the company's websites and open them in Pages.

  • Printing a Greeting Card

    Why am I not able to "Order Prints" of a Greeting Card?

    Which version of PSE? Did you select a Shutterfly template or one that says "Print Locally"? If the latter, those are for printing on your home printer, not for ordering.

  • How to print a greeting card

    I used to print greetings cards on windows easily. I still don't know how to do it well on my MacBook. Can anyone te me how to print a folded card on a MacBook Pro using an HP color printer? On windows, there are direction on where to fold the paper so that you have a front, then open the folded paper to a message. It even let you put your own little hallmark-like logo on the back page. 
    Thanks on advance.

    You used a specialized program that did that apparently.
    You can sort of mimic that using free drawing software like LibreOffice importing a picture, scaling it to fit a corner and creating text and rotating it and positioning it like so, then folding and trimming the edges, then lightly gluing it together.
    https://www.libreoffice.org/
    There are rulers on the sides so you know where to place things and you can use a ruler when it's printed to find where to make the folds.
    10.8 users, Right or control click on the program and choose "Open" to bypass security measures of Gatekeeper if you trust the source of the program.

  • Alignment problems printing direct to DVD with Epson R220

    I know this question isn't specifically related to iDVD but I wondered if someone could help please?
    I recently bought an Epson R220 printer to print direct to DVDs created with iDVD as I know labels stuck onto DVDs are best avoided.
    However, using both the bundled Epson Print CD software and 'disclabel', I find the print is about 1cm off centre. I'm really surprised by this, as I thought these machines would just work out of the box - detecting through the software where the centre of the DVD is? I've tried everything to remedy this (including the position adjustment within Print CD which allows up to 5mm fine-tuning). The problem is I need more than fine tuning - the print is way off!
    I'd be interested to hear from anyone who has an R200 or R220 and might have had a similar problem as I've spoken to Windows users with the same printer, who report no such hassle.
    Many thanks,

    Thanks Hardy - really appreciate the links to the Epson site. I've tried using the manual settings as you suggest, and I've certainly witnessed a vast improvement. Basically, it seems that if I alter the position adjustment slightly and then opt for a manual print, the disc is centred no problem. It isn't quite up to the edge of the disc - there's about a 2mm gap, using one of the templates from the Print CD app. Have you noticed this also - or does the image print right up tight against the edge of the disc?
    If I go back and opt to just 'Print' from the first menu that appears after selecting File>Print, (i.e. not using Manual to print) the image is consistently about 15mm off centre - I've tried this on a dozen tests. However, using 'Manual Print' this isn't the case. I wonder if there is a glitch here in the latest edition of EPSON Print CD (V1.4), in that you seem unable to specify 'Page Set Up'?
    I've also gone back to the excellent disclabel application. Here I find that if I change the 90% default under page set up, to 100%, the disc is also aligned correctly.
    Thanks very much Hardy for taking the time to work through this one with me - much appreciated.

  • HT3500 Problem printing from MacBook Air with Mountain Lion to HP Photosmart Premium C310a Printer

    My HP Photosmart Premium C310a printer used to work fine with my MacBook Pro printer running Lion.  I bought a new MacBook Air that comes of course with Mountain Lion.  I added a new printer from the System Preferences.  The printer will print sometimes.  Sometimes the printer just restarts itself and then will print.  I used to have an excellent HP Scan Utitlity.  That is now gone and it is really hard to scan anything.  I am beginning to think it is time to get rid of the HP Printer and buy another one that fully supports Mountain Lion.  Can anyone help me here?

    Hi - if you haven't done this already, HP support lists several download options including software for OS X for your printer - I would try that route since what comes with Mountain Lion doesn't seem to work - let me know how you make out

  • Problems printing from photoshop CS4 with epson R2880

    I just purchased an epson stylus photo R2880, I thought it was broken due to the fact that I could
    not make prints from photoshopCS4.... it goes through all the motions and when its time to print, the soft ware just stops and nothing happens, no warning window, nothing, just no print, I have been three days with epson support by telephone and we have gone through every  possible scenario. I have repaired permissions, I have repaired the disks, I have reinstalled all drivers and I can  print
    from iphoto, from epson software, Lightroom and from preview but not from photoshop, I am at my wits end...I have my agent in Italy asking for three new portfolios and I cannot deliver. please help

    In conjunction with Jeff's suggestion, I suggest that you remove all of Epson's preferences for your preference folder especially if you are experience some other issues with other software. And especially if you have 10.6.1 installed.
