I just got my first order of PTI white and am in love. I wanted to print out the Copic color chart, but I'm having an issue on a laser printer. Any suggestions? I did change paper type to extra heavy. TIA!
it depends on the printer. if your printer rolls the cardstock (as opposed to keeping it flat) as it goes through the printer, it may be a problem. I am not able to use my printer with PTI cardstock.

Yep, it seems to depend upon the brand. I have an Epson and it prints on the PTI cardstock without any problems. Mine does roll the cardstock through and still works fine. Hope you can get it to work!
Sadly, I've had mixed results with using PTI paper in printers (both ink jet and laser). I've given up and use the Georgia Pacific from Walmart in them instead. I don't want to risk ruining the printers.
Our printers also don't seem to want to work with the PTI paper. I bought a ream of Neenah Classic Crest for the projects that need to be run through our printers. We have two lasers and an inkjet. One of the lasers doesn't not have a manual feed so it's difficult even using the Neenah.

I would love to know the specific models of the ones that PTI goes through.
I have an HP that in all other aspects is fab. But it's hit or miss with the PTI CS going through. I don't like to use Copics on any other brand cs as it bleeds and is frustrating. Now that I am on a digi dt this is becoming a bigger issue and would like to but a printer that likes my PTI.
Thanks!
The printer I use is an Epson RX620, but it is quite a few years old now so I doubt they still sell it. I've never tried my other Epson printer so I don't know if it would work with it or not (I only use it to print photos).
Printing on PTI paper?
