Hi all,
First timer on this forum, so excuse me if I'm posting on the wrong board.
I had a couple of questions re: my HP OfficeJet 5746 - for starters, does anyone know if it's possible to print home-made, Vinyl stickers on it (If I just feed it vinyl printer paper)? If not, what product would you guys recommend?
Definitely looking for help and suggestions in terms of printing home-made stickers.
Lastly, I wanted to see if anyone else has experienced an issue with their ink cartridges. My printer is in the office (not necessarily in direct sunlight), but seems to always "dry out" (my suspicion). Whenever I print, it seems to print really faded.
I've tried to troubleshoot the printer - from cleaning the cartridges, aligning the printer heads, etc., to replacing the ink cartridges themselves (which works well for the first week or so, that's why I suspect the ink's drying out). Any suggestions as to how to maintain my printer better?
Thanks in advance! Looking forward to hearing your tips!

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Yes you can print on stickers. Regarding the drying, if you've already changed the ink cartridges and the issue still persists, it could be an issue with the Printer/printhead.
Does the same happenw ith copies too?
