Do you have this problem



This could be the solution:

It is about moisture content in the paper. You can eliminate a lot of problems by dehumidifying the room where you have the printer to 45-50% humidity and bringing the room to approximately 18-20°c. What you can try is to leave the sheets open and exposed on a table overnight so that it can acclimatize to your space and then start printing. This often solves a lot of problems.
