supplies for Presto: What about paper (photo vs. copy paper)?

The HP Printing Mailbox uses plain paper, not photo paper, because it's mostly for emails. Photos attached to emails are printed in the message body automatically, in color. The higher quality paper you use, the nicer your prints will look, naturally. HP makes a nice 24# bright white plain paper that results in really great-looking prints. The printer uses standard HP 95 or 97 print cartridges. The ink volume of the 97 is double that of the 95. Installing a print cartridge is really, really easy. You can see much more detail by viewing the Flash Demo by clicking on the link on the Amazon page above.

I don't think this is what you want. This is 20# ordinary copy paper. It sounds like you are looking for a special purpose paper. If you have a Staple's or Office Depot in your area, you might find your paper there or possibly at an art supply store.

I'm quite sure that the Presto box had a new cartridge in a separate package. Had to open it and then install it, but it was super easy. Easier than most computer printers.

I copy anything i need to a transparency and use. Be sure you use the transparencies for copiers and not the write on or they can melt and damage your copier. I have even been able to use a fax/copier at one of our locations to run a quick copy of a document to use for training.

I've noticed much better results when printing photographs using Epson photograph paper rather than some other brand, probably because the Epson ink is specifically formulated to be used with that specific paper. Do also remember that a copy is really also a photograph. You may need to scan the piece you want to copy and then manipulate the color registration in a program like Photoshop before printing it to get the best results. If Photoshop is beyond your budget, I've also had excellent results with Corel's PaintShop Pro.

I use their papers most of the time. I also like Calumets "Brilliant" brand papers. RRP has a great selection of paper for cards as well as photos. I think you'd be happy with either. Good luck.

I believe it only takes paper. That's what I've been using for the past year.

Pro platinum paper is gloss finish. It is wonderful photo paper, heavier than the normal weight of the other choices. It you have a Canon printer, set the settings to the pro platinum paper and high finish of the photos. do this same selection in your computer for these same settings. You will have the sharpest picture image on some of the best paper choice you could possibly want to achieve. I will find it hard to use any other kind of photo paper after printing 3 wedding albums with this choice of paper. I hope this helps you to make your choice of paper.

I mostly use parchment or rice paper I find at cake decorating store. I have also used tracing paper, normal copier paper, loose leaf paper found at many places from the Dollar store to office supply shops.

Yes, very much so. I assume you realize the considerable differences in paper, i.e., glossy, art stock, 100% rag, etc., will require adjustments on your images prior to printing. If you're using Photoshop or Light Room, previewing your image with Soft Proofing will greatly assist your output. BTW, you MUST change the blacks when using rag or art stock from photo black to matte black--and easy adjustment on the printer.

Yes with the proper photo paper you will get excellent photos. Hope this helps you.

I am using an HP ENVY Printer. I would bet you would enjoy this paper as I do many photo cards and always get pleasant responses.

Use Strathmore Stamping cards to mount my pictures since I like the paper wt and quality. Tried Avery for slightly larger size. Liked quality & weight of paper. Each sheet gives you 2 cards. Crisp clean lines and set folds makes for easy use. Card stock quality. Good luck. Marie :)

The transfer paper helps u line it up before u stick it down. U won't always need it, but it is helpful when it's a longer word or larger image!

Yes, 2X3 ZINK photo paper is the appropriate media for printing from a Socialmatic. Check out Polaroid.com.

Office Depot has the paper and it is their most popular adding machine paper. I comes in packages of 3 rolls.
