Printing Tips
- Use blank white regular printer paper (US Letter) for best results as it is the best for the colors to show.
- You can also use A4 size paper but adjust the paper setting on your printer and set the printing to 'fit to page'. Preview and check the margins before printing. Do note the full background designs may not print in full due to the difference in paper sizes.
