Hi
I would like to overprint my contact details on a commercially produced
brochure intended for printing with a rubber stamp.
The leaflets feed through the printer OK but the ink stays wet and runny
(Epson color 680). I've tried using different paper settings but there's no
appreciable difference in the drying time (about 15 minutes). Can anyone
suggest anything that will allow me to print them without having to stand
over the printer to remove them one by one to avoid smudging. Is there a
cart that will do this? (I'm using JetTec carts at present.

Offset printed brochures are most printed in Velvet type of paper. It's a
type of paper you can't print well in an inkjet printer. You have only one
solution (may it works):
Make your logo with up to 60-70% saturation. I mean, if you used black use
60% gray instead. If you used pure red use rose instead. It's the only way
you may print velvet paper.
