has anyone tried to print on burlap with this printer?

Plain paper printers are not capable of printing on fabric, the mechanisms that move the paper will not be compatible with anything other than paper that the printer manufacturer has specified. There is however craft paper available that looks and has a texture that mimics burlap, you can find it in craft stores in the scrapbooking section, you would set your printer for the thickest possible paper, and alter your print preferences for thick paper before attempting to use this type of paper. this type of paper often is only available in 12"x12" sheets, you may have to have them cut down to 8.5x11 to fit the printer.Cheers and good luck.

NO you can't print on burlap or heavy paper. This printer is just a basic printer,I have 2 of them.

I have never tried that application. However, I am extremely satisfied with this printer and can't see why the heavier paper would pose a problem.

I have not had the same problem. My printer prints great in color and black & white.

I have tried to use these on mine, but they do not print correctly. I'm not sure what to do. I attempted to override the printer, but the prints are poor quality.

I have an ink jet printer and it was fine. No smudging at all. I was very please with the result.

Not without manually reloading the paper after the first side print. I also experience regular wifi drop outs where I have to not just turn off but also unplug the printer to get it to respond to print or scan.

I've printed on cardstock, not sure if that's 100 LB or not- I make my own greeting cards from paintings I've done. It worked as well as on the regular weight paper. I do bump up the black a little when printing scans.

I have. To be safe, print on one side first, allow the ink dry and then print on the second side. I had beautiful results.

I have never tried it on burlap, but I think ifyou put it on thick enough, or put it on several times, it should work. I gather the burlap will not be exposed to the outside elements.

The printer is not good for thicker cover weight paper. I tried 67# and it curled tighter than a tootsie roll, basically unusable. And the duplexer jammed every single time. The duplexer will not processes paper over standard weight. I'm disappointed. I'd appreciate recommendations of a printer that prints flat 2 sided on thicker paper.

I don't think you can get it to print unless both cartridges have ink. I keep extra black & color cartridges on hand that way, I can still print. I print more invoices than anything else so I go through more black ink. Sorry I can't give you more help.

I've not tried this, but seems like reviews I've read indicated no. However, it uses much less ink than most printers. We're very pleased with ours.

Yes, but I have only been able to do it out of etsy. I haven't figured out how to get it to print the right size on usps website. I am sure you can figure it out I just don't use it enough to put forth the effort.

Not without you putting the paper back in upside down!(No, this printer is not duplex, and will not print on both sides on its own.)

Not unless you have a white ink cartridge. Inkjet printers "print" white by simply not laying down any ink at all based on the assumption that the paper being printed on is white. You'd have to replace the black ink cartridge with a white one and set the font color to black for this to work.

Hi Jill. I've used the printer to print thicker stock than regular paper and it struggled a little. Couple jams or incorrect feeds before I got what I wanted. It's a good printer. But I'm not sure how pictures would do. Hoped this helped.
