What kind of cover stock are you using? I'm curious because I tried making books at home using craft glue which works surprisingly well. But unless using expensive, thick photo paper for inkjets I don't get good quality covers. What paper exactly are you using for the covers? Do you have lettering on the spine?

We use 80lb cover stock (this is different from 80lb paper, confusingly). we use a powis parker binder that does perfect binding.

the cover stock goes through the external paper path (not the internal tray because it is heavier than can go around the corners in the printer).
