because I've been pulling it out.
But some of us have not a care in the world.
Did I ever mention how I LOVE the gingham oilcloth I got at JoAnn's?
Finally received the recommended printer that I ordered online. The original one that all the labels are tweaked for, is not coming back to life after $86 worth of new ink. So I bought new ink for the other HP that doesn't have the quality print of the one that died, and had to rescan and rephoto all the labels because it printed the files so far off color. Even then, several designs did not print well. The Canon arrives (their ink is usable in several models so if it dies, I can transfer the cartridges to another) and I start the process over again for some of the labels. Everything works fine, quality is better, worked out the color changes and such, printed. Was almost to the finish line. Almost. In order to clean the edges when gluing from excess and fingerprints, the paper must be sealed. Matte Modpodge. Always worked fine, clear, no smears. Here is the final page of peacock labels. As I was applying the Mod, I saw something happening. They turned mauve. The two on the right, second and third down, are as they should be. The other freaking pink ones have a thin coat of ModPodge. I have never ever ever had this much trouble.
And I never heard of ModPodge changing the colors of a photo or print. So another printer and another set of individual ink cartridges, worthless.
Where's a can of icing when you really need it?
Hope all is well with y'all.
To Sarah. I'm sorry I can't help with the lost blogs. I follow blogs and updates on the dashboard page's Reading List. I click on the orange G in top corner and it opens. I am not Google+ , and you are now no-reply as is everyone that signed up for Google+.

You are becoming a printer expert. Not by choice I am sure. Hang in there...
Maybe this is a sign to let it go and be done with printing?? Or maybe it's a sign that more cans of icing need to be stocked?!
Yes Debbie Haggard! For everything else that I didn't even mention that has gone wrong, and I am on the FOURTH set of corners because of them, I think it's time to hang it up.
More icing! Cures what ails ya!
HP used to be the best printers around. My last one was it. So many issues over and over. Expensive ink that is not works in a particular printer. I have had much better luck with brother. The color issues and run issues for me all centered around paper quality actually. If paper is poor quality the pigment issues arises. Just sharing it in case it may get be part of your issue too.
So sorry it's just not working. You've tried so hard but I'm sure you will persevere and make it work!!!
Morning Marly, sorry to hear about your woes!!!! Love the oilcloth, I need one. Hugs Francine.
Ugh! How frustrating that must be, Marly... I hope you can figure out some solution before your (thick!) hair is all torn out!!
I'm late to the party, lol. I've always been told to use a matte acrylic sealer before using the Mod Podge. Mod Podge makes an acrylic sealer that is spayed on lightly, allowed to dry and then another coat sprayed on. My daughter purchased a Canon Pixma printer for her photography and the print quality is amazing. I've not had the chance to try the acrylic sealer yet, but would love to hear how it works for you if you try it.
