Assuming you have set the dialogue boxes for printer,
and/or Page Set-up, to the appropriate card setting; when
the 'ghost' paper prints do you mean a sheet passes
through after the card but is blank? Or are you saying
the printer makes its usual printing noises without
passing a sheet? Also, is there paper in the tray in
addition to the first card. What happens if you print
paper only - do you get the same double action?

If the above is no help try something which still catches
me out at times, but this depends on your having Print
Reverse Order (or similar word) operating. If your
document is a single page job (and if you are running
Word!) look near the left side of the status bar to see
how many pages are shown. You will see something
like '1/1' meaning you are displaying page one out of a
total of one. Should the intended page be getting near
the foot it is quite easy to have the short horizontal
line too far below the insertion point so you have
created and entered the second page - but it carries no
typing. This will show as '1/2' . Put the cursor just
above this short line and keep pressing backspace to
raise it back to page one. Watch the 1/2 change to 1/1
then stop.
You would have been printing page two, blank, on the
card, followed by an attempt to print page one (on paper
that is not there?)

I am feeding cardstock through my HP Deskjet, but the
page is sent through
and then the printer prints on "ghost" paper. I have
checked every setting I
can think of. I only have one page in Word. I even
selected "Print
Selection" and it still won't work correctly. Any ideas?
