Re: Printing

1 - You absolutely need a laser printer. Dual tray is recommended, but if that's not in your budget, MOST laser printers have an auxiliary tray that holds maybe 20 pages. They can be configured so that the main tray holds one size paper and the auxiliary holds the other size. You can configure the printer to pull the appropriate size paper for each page in the PDF you receive, but how to do that varies from one printer to another, so if you have trouble you can come back and tell us your printer model - someone may be able to walk you through it. If not, see below...

2 - You don't get precise printing instructions - you should know what size paper you need for each page. A properly configured laser printer will pull the right paper size. If you only have one tray, NR has a page sorter program on their Resources tab that will allow you to upload a PDF and get back two - one with all letter-size pages, the other with all legal-size. Don't worry about presentation order - you'll quickly learn which are the most important documents that should be presented first.

3 - You should always carry a small supply of loose certificates just in case the wording on the document's notarial certificate is not compliant with your state's laws. You can create them on a word processor using your state-specific wording; your loose certificate should include a section where you can identify the specific document you are attaching it to. Otherwise, it can be pulled off and used fraudulently. One thing I found out the hard way was that that the size of the loose certificate should match the size of the document, so carry both letter and legal-sized loose attachments. Also - you will get some packages that include loose certificates - they're only there if you need them, but I think some SS and TC are hoping a notary is dumb enough to fill it out and send it back. Don't be that guy - either send it back blank, discard it, or save it for future use.

Hope this helps.
