      <P style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; MARGIN: 15px">Outputting a test sheet on plain 
      paper when you're creating printed labels, fabric sheets, greeting cards, 
      and anything else out of the ordinary is important. Not only will you save 
      special and more expensive media (such as card stock, photo paper, and 
      fabric), but you will also have the chance to make sure everything on the 
      page is the way you want it. Think of it as a rough draft! </P>
      <UL>
        <LI class=style2>Check to make sure any designs are on the expected side 
        of the paper. 
        <LI class=style2>Assess the color and clarity to determine if your 
        printer settings are appropriate. 
        <LI class=style2>Be sure that images and text fit on the page. 
        <LI class=style2>Determine whether all the elements are arranged 
        correctly. For example, if you're printing a greeting card, fold the 
        test page the same way you fold the greeting card paper. 
        <LI class=style2>Use your test sheet as the final opportunity to 
        proofread anything you've written or examine photos and designs to see 
        if you want to make changes. </LI></UL>
