Pro Tips for Quality

  • Printer: Epson L805 or L3250 series works best.
  • Paper: Use "High Glossy" 180 GSM.
  • Settings: Always set "Photo Quality" to High. A blurry QR code means the Aadhaar is useless.

Troubleshooting Common Errors

  • Print Cuts Off: Ensure your Printer Driver page size matches the physical paper (4x6). In Chrome, use "Fit to Paper" option.
  • Password Error: Ensure the CAPS LOCK is on if the user name is in caps.
