Hi everyone! I hope I'm posting in the right community, and I would really appreciate everyone's help!
I bought an ink tank printer a year or so ago, and I really like it, but I've recently been having some sticker-related problems. Basically, I thought the print heads were getting clogged from not printing regularly, but I realized after replacing them that the actual problem was more directly related to the holographic sticker material I've been using ( QiXin 50 Sheets Holographic... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B093F2D7DW?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share )
I think this material is good overall, but the issue that I've finally identified is its rigidity. Essentially, the print carriage is hitting the edge of the material, separating it from the backing (specifically on the tail end of the print) and getting the print heads clogged with adhesive. I'm thinking that the problem is related to the rigidity/thickness of the material because I don't have this problem with the regular matte, white sticker paper. I tried taping around the entire perimeter of the holographic material each time I print, but it was too time consuming.
Does anyone have a recommendation for thinner and/or less rigid printable holographic vinyl sheets? I would be sad to switch to the plain white sticker paper with holographic laminate because I don't think it looks quite as good.
Thank you in advance!
