Printer not printing on glossy paper

[BM2412]

Hello, I have the HP office Jet pro 6978 and i am having difficulty printing my stickers from cricuit to the printer. As it sends to the printer only have or 1/4 of the images are being printed. I am using glossy sticker paper.

Welcome to the HP English Community --

I don't have a solution --

I can tell you that we see complaints of this type probably every month or so.

For example,

Cricut stickers will not print, do not line up, slip, balk, fail.

My current hypothesis is that the slick back side of the sticker paper slips and won't feed properly.

What if?

There is no way to measure the front side "slickness" -- the material or the surface of the front side of the paper might be the actual culprit.

I have no way to test - I have never loaded Cricut sticker paper into any printer.

People have tried all sorts of remedies, including using tape along the edge and /or trying to feed the paper manually.

I would never put a taped sheet of paper in any of my printers

The manual feed method seems overly desperate and prone to errors.  Personal opinion.

"Yeah, but -- It's my printer and it should do what I want."

Clean the printer -- make sure it's ready to do its best work.
