thewayne | Well, this sucks!

Tonight my main job was to print out the games that I'm taking to BlingFest. I start with Karaoke Screams and use up almost all of my Avery card stock. I also learn that my printer will not do double-sided cards. Apparently the bend is too sharp to run this business card stock through twice, the paper doesn't jam, but it doesn't feed correctly and mis-prints the page. Fortunately Karaoke Screams is really the only game that it's good to be able to differentiate backs.

I had picked up 100 or so sheets of Staples business card stock last week because I knew that I didn't have enough Avery stock to print everything. Supposedly this Staples stock is compatible with the Avery 5371 that I normally use. It's cheaper, larger boxes, and I had a coupon.

Continuing, I print Nightmare Scrabble, it's only three pages, and I had one sheet of the Avery left. The other two sheets print fine. So Nightmare Scrabble is done.

I start printing Waste of Celluloid. This one is big: 30something pages. And page after page after page jams.

I guess that Staples stock isn't quite as compatible as they claim to be!

Fortunately it has a 100% satisfaction guarantee, and I ain't satisfied. Unfortunately, when I was buying the Staples stock, I don't recall seeing any Avery 5371 packets on the shelves.

This may prove to be very inconvenient....
