When printing, the printed side of the paper comes out facedown....Will the pages be wet when printed and smear on the paper tray?

The pages do come out wet and will smear. My printer puts the paper out faceup so they don't smear but I have to pull out each sheet and set them aside to dry so they don't sit on top of each other. They do print beautifully though.

Although I haven't tried them specifically on glossy paper, I have tried them on several non-paper surfaces (such as a semi-gloss canvas). If you give the ink ample time to dry (will be tacky after just a few minutes and then totally dry after several hours) then it will likely not smear. However, if I went back to the canvases that I've done with them and wiped a damp cloth across, I'm rather certain the ink would smudge, so I do not believe that the ink is waterproof.

The problem might be that the paper tray is not fully extended. If you take out the tray you will see the tealish green extender and to the right of it is a smaller tab that you push down and pull back to extend the paper tray. Once done it should fit a stack of paper fine and shouldn't jam. Make sure to add a little more clearance to the back of the printer for the extension of the paper tray adds more length to the overall size of the printer.

When I first got the printer I had problem loading paper from the top. The thing I was doing wrong is that I was placing the paper on the WRONG side of the slider that is used to snug-up the various width papers. The paper goes on the right side of that slider and I was loading it on the left. Perhaps that is what is happening with you?

I believe that Thomas Pan is correct. You need to ensure that the paper tray is fully extended (it will project a bit from the rear of the printer) and check to make sure that the paper lies flat in the tray. If it is bent or arched in any way the tray is not fully extended.

I think that if it is something you printed out on your own printer there might be a problem since printer ink is water soluble. If it is ordinary printed material I don't see any problem other than soaking the paper might wrinkle it.

You can select 2-sided printing when using the printer, but you have to manually turn the paper over and place it back in the feed tray.

That's a bit difficult to answer without knowing exacting what kind of stock it is. If it is a cotton or linen stock, it really shouldn't, but if it is a heavier card like stock with a bit of a shine to it or a very smooth finish, that could be the problem. That said, I don't get the best results printing on good stock either. It doesn't smudge, but after about 30-40 envelopes, I end up with a vertical line on every envelope. My best guess is that it is the printer itself.

I've never had trouble with smearing. There's a protective sheet to attach to each of the printed sheets.

Ihave the MFC-J875DW and I have to print side 1 and then turn printed side of the new printed page 180* and put it in the print tray with print side up and the printer will print on both sides,-- but make sure you put side 2 of the needed copy into feeder to scan and print to the paper side 2.

If you are talking about printing on both sides of the paper there is a setting when you go into the print mode to manually print on both sides. First it will print either odd or even (don't remember which) and then you will take those pages and put them just as they are face up in the tray and hit the button on the screen again. When it comes out, you will have to reorder the pages but that is self-evident.

Yes....We use it in a Retail environment. One tray prints on blue paper and the other yellow. Just set it up in the printer properties or your software.

Hi. I printed an email and dripped water on it, and the ink held up pretty good; however, it did smear when I rubbed my finger over it, but the letters were still there. I hope this review was helpful.

Yes, this printer's normal function is for one side... If you want 2 sided printing you must insert the page back into the paper tray, printed side up with the top of the page inserted first, close the tray then click print for the other side to print out.

The back tray is a hide away when not in use. It sides up, tilts back. When it is open, you can see the paper size slide. insert paper. Before printing do NOT forget to go to properties and select rear tray or auto select.

I haven't gotten the paper too damp, but it doesn't bleed any more. The ink should be permanent on most paper unless you are using on something glossy, then it has that wonderful smear affect that gel ink does.

I dont know about the feeder tray, but with a thicker paper when you are printing two sided, the paper gets jammed pretty easily. It does just fine one sided though.
