what paper is best for printing

[hayley1986]

Hi. this question might sound stupid. but i am really new to this. what kind of paper would you recommend for printing off digital scrapbooking.

The best type of paper to print on is the one made by the same manufacturer as your printer. Yes, it is usually more expensive than something generic but with it you should get the best printing results.

(Oh yeah...and there are no stupid questions here...well, okay, maybe some...but this is definetely not one of them!) :)

I like matte paper, some people like glossy. That's another thing to think about! :)

I have a canon printer and have used kodak paper with okay results. Hp paper doesn't work well at all with my canon, but epson paper works great. I have also had some luck with different store brands, but it is a matter of trial and error. I like matte paper for under page protector and glossy for other uses. Hope that helps!

I also have a Canon printer and started using Kodak paper with disappointing results. I decided to test the Canon paper. I printed off the same photo, one on Kodak paper and one on Canon paper. I was amazed at the results- The Canon paper was SO much better!! I don't use anything else now. Sometimes you can catch a Buy 1 - Get 1 FREE sale at Best Buy, Office Depot, etc.
