Is there a way to get my printer to print on glossy paper?

I have a Canon i900D photo printer and I want to print some brochures. When I try to print on glossy paper, the ink sort of sits on the surface and takes a long time to dry and the black bleeds into the other colors. I've messed with the settings and have actually had the same problem printing on other specialty papers. The blue and green colors don't print true on this paper either. What's the deal?
