|  Is it okay to soak a T216? 
			
			I've done it with T206s, just want to make sure it's not gonna wreck the thing.

			Yes. Clean, cool water. Patience. Change the water. Blot a bit, then press dry (try to refrain from mashing the water out, some folks think stacks of books and concrete blocks are necessary). Take a before scan, and an after scan; and post, please. |

|  a little more info? Quote: 
 Frank- Just curious, have you tried it with a T216? The glossy stock on some of them might have me a little concerned. Also, if the card is in really poor shape, as many T216s are, I would be careful the paper doesn't fall apart (again, if it's in really bad shape).
