Laser Printers???

2002-02-04 by Jim Panzer

Hey people, I was wondering if anyone could recomend some good paper to
use with a laser color printer 4550?  Reading this list, I know I would like
to get an Epson with the MIS deal but until then I am forced to print any
work I have at work here on this laser machine.  Has anyone ever used one of
these before?  I have printed a shot out on regular paper and it looked very
good in my opinion, but the paper is very light and I am having a hard time
finding anything like Laser Photo paper for it.  Whelp, any info would be
great, thanks!

Interesting, I will shortly inherent my wifes B&W laser printer and 
plan to test papers on it. The problem is lasers burn the carbon onto 
paper so I think it will require hunting around for a suitable paper. 
I have received some colour photos from Japanese friends printed on 
an office laser and was impressed, scanned them into photoshop and 
would liken them to a 2.5 meg digicam shot. This is still all 
experimental so I cannot supply you with hard facts.

I would suggest you visit an art supply shop re: papers, because I am 
sure I am not the only person playing with laser printers for 
Photo/art.

regards,

Jerry.
