    I tried printing my rehearsal dinner invites (opal stardream flat cards) on my work's laser printer (I think it's an HP), and the text printed out funny -- one line looked like it printed twice, with normal text on top and a shadow right behind and above it. Anyone else experiencing that? How can I fix it?

    I have read that stardream paper is hard to print on...the ink runs or something. Make sure you're using a laser printer.

    Also, make sure the text doesn't have a shadow as an embellishment.

    I used the exact same paper.  I didn't have any problems with the print quality (at home on my laser HP).  But I did have problems with the alignment.  I had to hand feed each on individually because otherwise the latter half the stack would get printed in a different location since it was drawing up the paper too early or too late.

    You might need to clean the printer head if you're getting shadows though.  Try doing a cleaning and see if that fixes it.

    I'm doing all of those things -- using a laser printer, feeding it manually, there definitely isn't a shadow purposefully (it's only 1 line of text that's showing up like that). I have no idea how I would clean the printer head -- guess I'll be asking IT! =)
