Good evening,
I am a student and I have a number of handouts to print in order to work on them, but every time I use my highlighters, the black ink on the paper "bleeds." It doesn’t stay in place; it spreads, so to speak, making the words less legible. Is this a problem coming from my printer or from the handouts I am printing? Is there a solution to remedy this issue?
Thank you in advance!

Hello
The original document before scanning cannot intervene in this problem.
Paper that "absorbs" more ink may result in a slightly less sharp print and at first glance decrease the quality of the photocopy.
However, the ink components will be less on the surface and we can hope that there will be less left to be easily diluted by the highlighter.
The "solvents" of the highlighter must be as incompatible as possible with the ink used by the printer.
The countless types of paper, printing inks, and highlighter inks whose compositions are probably never known only leave the solution of conducting more or less random tests. The easiest, but not necessarily the cheapest, would be to "copy" the complete list of devices, supplies, etc. from someone close who does not have this problem of redilution of the printing ink by that of the highlighter.
