#10 — Paper bubbles

Using glossy paper stock (not photo paper) usually found in magazines. 

Ran a few sheets through the Brother laser printer and they come out with 
bubbles. The paper is actually bulged on both sides wherever bubbles appear. 

Other paper (bond, copy paper, etc.) has no issues

The paper doesn't seem really damp, so I doubt it's moisture content 
(although I'm open to being proven otherwise).

Ideas?

Thanks.

The paper is not the kind meant for the heat generated by the fuser element of a laser 
printer.

I'm making printed circuit boards (step 1: print circuit image on thin glossy 
magazine paper) following instructions published all over the 'net. Most of 
them suggest this type of paper and I've read no other reports of such 
problems.

I figured it out. 

I was printing using thin, hard-coated glossy stock but using printer 
settings for regular laser printer paper. My printer apparently adjusts the 
fuser temperature based on paper weight. 

I chose "thin paper" and the bubbles went away.

Cheers,
Dave
