It is recommended to check the printer specifications for maximum supported GSM. Another common scenario is that the printer’s rollers are either dirty or worn-out from years of use, therefore unlike to grip but the lightest of papers. In a large number of cases we come across, the photo paper weight (which is measured in GSM) or overall thickness exceeds the printer’s ability meaning it is too think or too heavy for the rollers to successfully handle. There are a number of reasons why this might happen. Such delay often results in uneven print. Mainly, either the printer is unable to pull the paper or there is a significant delay while the printer’s rolls seem to struggle until something starts to ‘catch on’ and the photo paper is fed into the printer. On rare occasions we come across printer feeding issues, mostly when budget or older printers are used.
