    Finally: a new printer... so what's good paper?

    After the printhead of my Canon i550 was damaged by the many prints that I've made, I had to buy a new one. After some time I decided to go for the Canon I4000. It should give really great prints and it has 5 separate ink tanks.

    Does anyone know what good quality / good price printingpaper is? Preferably from a wellknow brand or chain...

    This will be a long, long weekend with so many amazing covers that I'm going to print

    So maybe it?s good to try several different brand types of paper, just to see which one works the best on your printer and which one looks best to you.
    Yeah, I remember your advice.... But also that it's hard to get... I don't like to use glossy and normal (mat) photopaper costs a LOT.
