- For the highest quality, use heavy duty white card stock paper. You can also use regular paper if need something quick.
- Check ink levels before printing. No printer? Local print shops can help, and they are usually reasonably priced or you can check an online print shop.
- If you need another size other than US Letter, check your printer settings.
