Before you start printing NetStamps sheets, we recommend printing a sample sheet. This will help confirm your printer settings are correct, and your NetStamp sheets are loaded properly. Printing a sample is a good way to ensure you don't misprint your NetStamps, which can only be refunded with a mail-in form.
Sample prints are free, and you can print as many as you need. Print your sample on plain paper or download and print our sample NetStamps sheet (recommended) to use as the sample page. Download the sample sheet you need from the links at the bottom of this article and print a full-size copy on plain paper without headers or footers (do not choose the fit to page option).

The first step is to load the sample sheet into your printer correctly. NetStamps sheets are symmetrical, so you can load them into the printer from either direction. However, whether you load face up or face down will depend on your specific printer. Modern printers will have an icon, usually in the paper tray, to indicate how to load your paper.
Once you've loaded your test sheet into the printer, you are ready to print your sample.
